An Analysis of Man–Machine Interface Design Principles of Military Hardware

Abstract

This paper aims to study the principles of man–machine interface design which are expected to give significant theoretical guidance on humanized man–machine interface of the military hardware. It is an important constituent of the military hardware design and an essential aspect for improvement of service life of the military hardware. It adopts man–machine–environment system engineering theory and practical experience in combination of definition, classification and composition of man–machine interface to make this research a creative approach by integration of theory and practice. In accordance with the general requirements of humanized design, the man–machine interface design should follow man-oriented principle, safety principle, high effectiveness principle, economic efficiency principle, comfortableness principle and unity principle. Thus, the concrete design principles proposed in this paper are of great significance to 'two adaptation approaches' and the whole service life of the military hardware, and further promote the development of the military hardware.
