Haptic shared controllers (HSCs) are a promising solution to prevent human over-reliance on automation during tasks such as car driving. However, research has shown that if the HSC is tuned incorrectly, then there is a risk of haptic conflicts between the human and HSC. To address this challenge, this paper presents the design and implementation...

Although the roles of visual and haptic cues in motor tasks have been well studied, the benefits of audio cues in complex motor tasks have been underexplored. Audiovisual cues reduce reaction times and decrease the variance of endpoint responses in simple head-orienting localization tasks. The aim of this research is to explore the potential of...

BACKGROUND: The Quick Exposure Check (QEC) assesses four major body parts and engages users in assessing some physical interactions relevant to design in task analysis. OBJECTIVE: In this paper, we investigated the application of QEC as the ergonomic intervention to detect pre-production ergonomic design faults in the apple sorting machine by...

Thermal feedback has been proven to enhance user experience in human-machine interactions. Yet state-of-the-art thermal technology has focused on the single finger or palm in static contact, overlooking dynamic and multi-finger interactions. The underlying challenges include incompatible designs of conventional interfaces for providing...

Thermal feedback has been proven to enhance the user experience in human-machine interaction. However, state-of-the-art technology mainly focuses on static contact using either palm or fingertip, overlooking dynamic and multi-finger interactions. Underlying challenges include incompatible designs of the conventional interfaces for providing...

Vibrotactile wearable devices are a non-intrusive and inexpensive means to provide haptic feedback directly on the user’s skin. These devices utilize one or multiple vibrotactile actuators to generate vibrations across the skin and into the tissue. Combining these vibrations in amplitude can create the illusion of a funneled sensation on the...

Higher levels of vehicle automation come with new challenges for designing safe systems. The Human Machine-Interface (HMI) plays a key role in mediating the interaction between the human driver and vehicle automation. By providing the driver with appropriate feedback, the HMI has the potential to increase mode awareness and situational...

Haptic shared control enables continuous interaction between driver and automatic controller by means of torques on the steering wheel that guide towards a reference trajectory. Current haptic shared control systems induce conflicts when the reference trajectory of the automation differs from the drivers own desired trajectory, which can lead to...

ten Brink, Douwe (author)
Air traffic demand is expected to increase, while the system is already working at its limits. New decision support tools with higher levels of automation that allow for four- dimensional (4D, i.e., space and time) trajectory-based operations are proposed to cope with the increase in traffic demand. This research presents a conceptual interface...

Due to the increasing complexity of controlling Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), researchers have been trying to let automation take part of the UAV control in order to eliminate human error and reduce the workload of the operator. Such a system has been developed for UAV teleoperators which incorporates haptic feedback on the control stick...

Currently haptic technology is being widely implemented in applications such as tele-operation. One of the main concerns are the communication delays due to the visual or haptic feedback signals traveling long distances. Also, different subsystems handling visual and haptic feedback cause modality-specific delays causing asynchrony between...

The concept of trajectory-based operations as proposed by SESAR and NextGen seeks to increase airspace efficiency and capacity by introducing time as an explicit control variable. Such form of operations lean heavily on the introduction of higher levels of automation to support the human air traffic controller in performing this new task. In...

The future of air traffic management moving to 4D trajectory-based operations will require the development of new airspace sectors to increase aircraft capacity and advanced 'human-centered' decision support tools for future air traffic controllers. To evaluate and aid in the design of future air traffic management systems, complexity metrics...

Heinrichs, R. (author)
This thesis presents the research on designing a decision support system for designing communication strategies. The importance of this topic comes from the idea that more academic knowledge from social sciences could be used in designing communication strategies. However, often those strategies are not designed by scholars. Therefore a way must...

When a group decides to plan and organize a vacation, many researchers mention that group decision making within the travel planning problem often leads to suboptimal decisions. This can be explained by the fact that the process of travel group decision making is typically ineffective. To overcome some of the problems, we propose an intelligent...

This thesis is the first to provide the fundamentals of ergonomic exoskeleton design. The fundamental theory as well as technology necessary to analyze and develop ergonomic wearable robots interacting with humans is established and validated by experiments and prototypes. The fundamentals are (1) a new theoretical framework for analyzing...
