Advances in Ergonomics in Design

This book provides readers with a timely snapshot of ergonomics research and methods applied to the design, development and prototypingas well as the evaluation, training and manufacturingof products, systems and services. Combining theoretical contributions, case studies and reports on technical interventions, it covers a wide range of topics in ergonomic design including ecological design; cultural and ethical aspects in design; interface design, user involvement and humancomputer interaction in design; as well as design for accessibility and many others. The book particularly focuses on new technologies such as virtual reality, state-of-the-art methodologies in information design, and humancomputer interfaces. Based on the AHFE 2020 Virtual Conference on Ergonomics in Design, held on July 1016, 2020, the book offers a timely guide for both researchers and design practitioners, including industrial designers, humancomputer interaction and user experience researchers, production engineers and applied psychologists.
