Gloved operation provides insufficient feedback.

Touch screens and small controls fail in gloved use; confirmation cues are subtle.

Research Focus: Ergonomics and Inclusive DesignProblem identification → Design validation → Implementation

Three-step solution method

  1. Document glove type, contact gesture, and screen-viewing conditions on site.
  2. Compare physical controls, larger touch targets and clear confirmation feedback.
  3. Test tasks with actual equipment to identify accidental inputs and missed status cues.

Key Deliverables

  • Equipment Task Log
  • Control Options
  • Feedback Prototype

Verification Approach

Measure accidental inputs, repeated inputs and the time needed to confirm status.
