Every day we interact with thousands of consumer products. We not
only expect them to perform their functions safely, reliably, and
efficiently, but also to do it so seamlessly that we don't even
think about it. However, with the many factors involved in consumer
product design, from the application of human factors and
ergonomics principles to reducing risks of malfunction and the
total life cycle cost, well, the process just seems to get more
complex. Edited by well-known and well-respected experts, the
two-volumes of Handbook of Human Factors and Ergonomics in Consumer
Product Design simplify this process. The second volume, Human
Factors and Ergonomics in Consumer Product Design: Uses and
Applications, discusses challenges and opportunities in the design
for product safety and focuses on the critical aspects of
human-centered design for usability. The book contains 14 carefully
selected case studies that demonstrate application of a variety of
innovative approaches that incorporate Human Factor and Ergonomics
(HF/E) principles, standards, and best practices of user-centered
design, cognitive psychology, participatory macro-ergonomics, and
mathematical modeling. These case studies also identify many unique
aspects of new product development projects, which have adopted a
user-centered design paradigm as a way to attend to user
requirements. The case studies illustrate how incorporating HF/E
principles and knowledge in the design of consumer products can
improve levels of user satisfaction, efficiency of use, increase
comfort, and assure safety under normal use as well as foreseeable
misuse of the product. The book provides a comprehensive source of
information regarding new methods, techniques, and software
applications for consumer product design.
