Interference Between 6 Degrees of Freedom in a 3D Hand Controller 04 JUL 97
Authors:  J. E. Korteling; A. Oving; M. L. van Emmerik; J. B. F. van Erp; HUMAN FACTORS RESEARCH INST TNO SOESTERBERG (NETHERLANDS)
The full text of this report is not available and therefore is not for sale. This information is provided for reference purposes only.A six degree of freedom (DOF) hand controller is a device that can be used for the simultaneous control of multiple axes. These kinds of control tasks are common in areas such as teleoperation. Multi-axis control may be problematic as a consequence of interference I.e., the control of a certain DOF affected the simultaneous control of another. Irrespective whether the cause of this interference lies in the operator's motor system ...


Control-Display Mapping with Three Translational Degrees of Freedom 29 MAY 97
Authors:  J. B. van Erp; A. Oving; J. E. Korteling; HUMAN FACTORS RESEARCH INST TNO SOESTERBERG (NETHERLANDS)
The full text of this report is not available and therefore is not for sale. This information is provided for reference purposes only.Situations in which the human operator must control three translational degrees of freedom are common in, for example, control of robot arms, remotely controlled cameras, and tele-surgery. Often, the operator has no direct view on the controlled object, but receives information on the motions of the object via a camera - monitor system or a simplified graphical display. In the design of such systems, it is important that the mapping ...


Control-Display Mapping in a 3D Positioning Task (Control-display mapping bij een 3D positioneringstaak) 27 NOV 96 28 pages
Authors:  J. B. VAN Erp; A. Oving; J. E. Korteling; HOOFDGROEP MAATSCHAPPELIJKE TECHNOLOGIE TNO DELFT (NETHERLANDS)
The full text of this report is available for sale.Subjects have certain expectations about the mapping of motion directions of the control device on those of the controlled object on the accompanying display. When the actual mapping is according to this expectation, the relation is compatible. Compared to less compatible or even incompatible relations, less training is required, reaction times are faster, less errors are made, and mental workload is lower in compatible control display relations. Concerning this mapping ...


Continuous Haptic Information and Platform Stabilization in Target Tracking 28 AUG 96
Authors:  J. E. Korteling; M. Van Emmerick; HUMAN FACTORS RESEARCH INST TNO SOESTERBERG (NETHERLANDS)
The full text of this report is not available and therefore is not for sale. This information is provided for reference purposes only.The present study was conducted to gain insight in the effects of different forms of continuous haptic information (CHI) to operator performance of an unmanned platform equipped with a camera-monitor system. In a simulator experiment, subjects had to track a moving target keeping a simulated disturbed platform as well as possible straight above a moving target. While performing this tracking task, haptic information was provided concerning translations of the platform ...


Specifications for Implementation of Performance Measurement and Feedback Systems for the Leopard 2 and YPR-765 Driving Simulators (Specificaties voor de implementatie van prestatiemeting en feedback systemen voor de Leopard 2 en YPR-765 rijsimulatoren) 30 JUL 96
Authors:  J. E. Korteling; J. B. van Erp; P. Padmos; HUMAN FACTORS RESEARCH INST TNO SOESTERBERG (NETHERLANDS)
The full text of this report is not available and therefore is not for sale. This information is provided for reference purposes only.In a previous report, specifications and guidelines were given for the implementation of Performance Measurement and Feedback (PMF) systems for the Leopard 2 and YPR-765 driving simulators (Korteling & Padmos, 1992). In connection with an update program for both simulators, the Dutch Armed Forces have decided to implement both systems. Therefore, the above-mentioned report is revised, taking into consideration changes in the learning trajectories, and comments of the, by now, ...


Partial Camera Automation in a Simulated Unmanned Air Vehicle 05 OCT 94 29 pages
Authors:  J. E. Korteling; W. van der Borg; HOOFDGROEP MAATSCHAPPELIJKE TECHNOLOGIE TNO DELFT (NETHERLANDS)
The full text of this report is available for sale.With the rapid development of automatic control techniques a central question is how the division of labor between the human operator and the automaton should be optimally distributed. In this connection, the present study focussed on an intelligent, semi-autonomous, interface for a camera operator of a simulated Unmanned Air Vehicle (UAV). This interface used inherent system knowledge concerning UAV motion in order to assist a camera operator in tracking an ...


Multiple-Task Performance: A Critical Review of the Literature and a Cognitive Neuroscience Framework 10 MAR 94
Authors:  J. E. Korteling; PRINS MAURITS LABORATORIUM TNO RIJSWIJK (NETHERLANDS)
The full text of this report is not available and therefore is not for sale. This information is provided for reference purposes only.In our modern society, technological developments have altered the nature of jobs and tasks. In many work situations, operators are required to monitor, control, and manipulate information via complex technological systems. Such systems typically involve performance of several tasks in a limited period of time. In order to be able to optimize such technological systems, knowledge with regard to complex-task performance is needed, based on which technical products, processes, and ...


Effects of Aging and the Development of Automatic and Controlled Skills in Driving 06 AUG 92
Authors:  J. E. Korteling; INSTITUTE FOR PERCEPTION RVO-TNO SOESTERBERG (NETHERLANDS)
The full text of this report is not available and therefore is not for sale. This information is provided for reference purposes only.The magnitude of age effects in single- 2nd dual-tasks may be affected by the degree to which the tasks require automatic or controlled processing (Hasher and Sacks, 1979) and whether skills of older subjects are familiar and developed before old age or novel and developed during the experiment (Fisk, McGee and Giambra, 1988). In addition, age-effects may be affected by emergent dual-task characteristics (Korteling, 1991, 1992), and by overall task ...
