    My field is Human Factors, which is the study of people in the work place (every work place), with the goal of redesigning tasks and equipment to better suit the range of individuals performing them. The field is very broad (which is why I like it), and includes many aspects of design engineering, perceptual psychology, anthropometrics, cognitive psychology, kinesiology, social psychology, and medicine. My research has focussed on the benefits and usability issues of stereoscopic displays, particularly with regards to teleoperation and augmented reality displays. With my colleagues

    CARLOW INTERNATIONAL INCORPORATED , named for a county in the Republic of Ireland, has been in the business of human factors engineering ( HFE ) for 20 years. HFE is a combination of behavioral science and engineering which addresses the needs, capabilities, requirements and accommodations of people in the design of complex systems.
    The primary objectives of HFE are to reduce the incidence and impact of human error; enhance the usability of complex systems; reduce cognitive workload and system manning; improve training; and increase system affordability.
    Carlow personnel have been applying HFE to maritime and offshore systems, manned spaceflight (for every manned spaceflight program since the Mercury Project), aircraft systems, transportation systems, information systems, consumer products, pharmaceutical plants, medical systems and devices, and systems and equipment for the aged and disabled List of Carlow Publications high center mounted brake light on all passenger vehicles sold in the US after 1986.

    Ergonomics is the scientific discipline
    concerned with the understanding of interactions among humans and other elements of a system, and the profession that applies theory, principles, data and methods to design in order to optimize human well-being and overall system performance. Ergonomics promotes a holistic approach in which considerations of physical, cognitive, social, organizational, environmental and other relevant factors are taken into account.

    Human Factors Engineering
    (No longer a luxury for FDA-regulated firms) Human factors engineering (ergonomics) is all about designing tools for human use . More formally, it is the scientific discipline concerned with the interaction between humans and artifacts and the design of systems where people participate. We have long believed that the FDA , once it resolved its hardware and software design & maintenance safety and effectiveness issues, would turn its attention to ergonomics. In fact, many believe that user errors may be the last bastion of equipment safety and effectiveness problems. The CDRH has recently put up a new section on its web site " Reducing Use Erro r". Even before the recent Institute of Medicine's report " To Err is Human ", the FDA was beginning to interpret the recent Quality System Regulation ( ) in the context of ergonomics issues. Consider the following examples: Human Factors Implications of the New GMP Rule Incorporating Human Factors in Risk Management Human Factors and the FDA's Goals:Improved Medical Device Design Some related CDRH Human Factors Publications Establishing and promoting an effective corporate human factors engineering program is not only a current regulatory compliance issue; it is very good for the Corporate bottom line. Products that are "ergonomically correct" are: much more desirable to users (users become more productive)
