About the event
This free webinar from the CIEHF’s Defence Sector Group provides you with an overview of human factors challenges facing designers of some of the most complex military fighting vehicles in service today.
You’ll hear about case studies used to analyse some of the key challenges including physical workstation design, the design of controls and displays and habitability. Designing for a diverse range of body shapes and sizes within the limited space available in military land vehicles is a key challenge and an important theme.
You’ll also find out about the future of military land vehicle design in the context of the changing face of warfighting and developments in technologies for Human-Computer Interaction.
Who will this be of interest to?
This will interest anyone that works in defence human factors or in any sector facing design challenges where space, environment and technology are critical factors.
