Controls in future earth moving machines
bookPart
This seventh chapter of the book 'Advanced cabin design : how to improve comfort and performance by progressive cabin design' explores whether a new way of steering has positive effects. Also controlling the speed of a movement versus the position of a movement is compared. The last 25 years the application of joysticks has increased. The use of the joystick in computer gaming is nothing special anymore. Nowadays, joysticks are also applied for professional use. For example, in the latest earth moving machines these joystick controls are almost standard. They are used for instance to steer the boom or the buckle. In other vehicles the application of joysticks is increasing as well. Even experiments are done with joystick steering in passenger cars.
