Abstract

The ergonomic study on the viewing screen layout of In-Vehicle information terminal is essential to improving the reliability of armored vehicle’s man–machine systems. Based on the ergonomic experiment platform of armored information system, a series of experiment was conducted in which 32 subjects performed the information entering task in three kinds of viewing screen layout of In-Vehicle information terminal. The mental workloads of each experiment condition were evaluated and compared. Results indicated that the layout view screen had a significant impact on crew’s mental workload. The research results can provide a reference for In-Vehicle information terminal design and display.
