Balanced Integration of COTS and Human Factors: An Evolved Approach
In our previous blog posts, we explored the benefits and limitations of integrating Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) systems, with a particular emphasis on Human Factors Engineering. We highlighted the need for a delicate balance between the advantages of COTS and the criticality of Human Factors Integration (HFI) to ensure successful system performance and user satisfaction. In this…

The Benefits and Limitations of COTS in Human Factors Integration
In our previous blog post, we explored the challenges and significance of Human Factors Integration (HFI) in the context of Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) systems. Now, we delve deeper into the promise of COTS, discussing how HFI can (in theory) unlock the proposed benefits. While COTS systems offer cost-effectiveness and quick deployment, we must also acknowledge the…

Use of Augmented Reality (AR) to assist wayfinding in built environments, Part 3: AR technologies and associated user experiences
Nigel Scard — Principal Human Factors Specialist In our previous blog post we discussed the wider context of emerging digital technologies, and how these technologies will contribute to the development of ‘Zero UI’ based interaction. In this post we’ll look more closely at the role AR will play in this, some of the associated hardware…

Use of Augmented Reality (AR) to assist wayfinding in built environments, Part 2: AR in the wider context of emerging technologies and ‘Zero UI’
In our previous blog post we introduced some of the reasons Liv Systems are interested in exploring the use of AR to assist wayfinding in built environments and gave a brief overview of our own internal research project on this topic. In this post we’ll discuss how AR aligns with some of the wider developments…
