Human Centred Design Combines branding, computer science, engineering, ergonomics, management, philosophy and psychology to design products and services which are physically, perceptually, cognitively and emotionally intuitive.
HCDI Members: Dr. Marco Ajovalasit Mr. Fergus Bisset Dr. Maria Ana Botelho Neves Dr. Busayawan Ariyatum Mr. John Boult Lady Chisholm Dr. Hua Dong Prof. Joseph Giacomin Mr. Stephen Green Dr. Olinkha Gustafson-Pearce Dr. Ray Holland Mr. Chris Holt Dr. Stephane Lo Presti Dr. Steve Love Ms. Farnaz Nickpour Mr. Paul Turnock Dr. Mark Young
Research Themes Augmented Cognition Systems The design and evaluation of cognitive technologies which act in partnership with humans, aiding or improving human performance. Design and Branding Strategy Creating and developing brands through design as a total sensory experience. Design Strategy and Innovation Management strategies and tools for adding value through design.
Research Themes Ergonomics and Human Factors Designing products, systems and services based on human capabilities and limitations. Human Centred Design Process Developing HCD practice and process through collaboration with a range of businesses and consultancies. Inclusive Design Approaches and methods for designing products, systems and services which empower people.
Research Themes Information Architecture Methods for designing products, systems and services which help people to understand complex data. Perception Enhancement Methods for designing products, systems and services which aid perception of key environmental stimuli.
Person-Machine Integration In automobiles new interfaces are being developed which integrate the functions of humans with those of the machine.
BitLAB Multipurpose research and conference facility.
Includes a Vicon motion capture system, a Minolta 3D scanner and three large raised Stewart screens. Research areas include multimedia, 3D visualisation, holography, grid computing and animation.
Perception Enhancement Lab Three sound proofed test chambers for performing psychophysical tests with participants.
Control and data acquisition systems permit high bandwidth (more than 300 Hz) reproduction of steering vibration and vehicle cabin sound.
Driving Simulator Lab
Fixed-base vehicle. STISim software. Steering torque feedback. Seat motion feedback. Dolby surround sound. Eye-tracking equipment.
Examples of HCDI Automotive Research Design of automotive displays for environmental sensitivity (EPSRC) The effects of adaptive cruise control on driver behaviour (Jaguar Cars) Vehicle automation and driver attentional resources (EPSRC) The effects of vehicle feedback on driver situation awareness and mental workload (The Hamilton Trust) Design of lane departure warning systems to support driver situation awareness (Jaguar Cars) Longitudinal study of parking with Ford’s advanced parking aid (Ford Motor Company) Evaluation of an advanced driver coaching system (IAM) Mental workload demands of operating in-car devices (Ford Motor Company) Behavioural consequences of using radar based vision enhancement in poor visibility conditions (Jaguar Cars) Validation of driving simulators for research into advanced vehicle technology (Jaguar Cars) Driver mental workload associated with advanced vehicle technology (ESRC) Design and assessment of the ‘stop and go’ system in a driving simulator and test track (Jaguar Cars) Evaluating advanced driver coaching (IAM) Effects of advertising on driver attention (Rees Jeffreys Road Fund) Effects of eating and drinking on driver distraction (Privilege Insurance) Effect of fuel properties on the human perception of engine idle irregularity (Shell Global Solutions) Human perception of steering wheel vibration and sound (Renault and Michelin) Intelligent environmental black-box recorder for summarising vehicular road testing data (EPSRC) Vibration mission synthesis algorithm (Ferrari) Integrated approach for NVH engineering of low weight vehicles chassis – INVEC (European Union) Seat comfort optimisation procedure – SCOOP (European Union) F1 Steering and Simulator development – (Brawn GP)
