Introduction to tactile displays in military environments
other
Challenging situations, such as those encountered by military pilots, are often a major thrust for ergonomic innovation. Examples include the development of advanced, multimodal, and intuitive interface techniques to counteract the danger of visual, auditory, and cognitive overload. Tactile displays (displays that use the skin as an information channel) typically belong to this category. The variety of tactile displays ranges from a single vibrating element (like those in mobile phones) to matrices of elements covering the torso of a pilot, soldier, diver, or other operator. Examples of this matrix display are the TNO Tactile Torso Display (TTTD, see Figure 1.1) and the Naval Aeromedical Research Laboratory Tactile
Situation Awareness System (TSAS), which both provide intuitive three-dimensional spatial information.
