Human
Performance Laboratory
|
|
The laboratory is
geared for teaching and research related to Data Visualization, Product
Design and Human Performance Modelling. State-of-the-art equipment are available for digital 3D scanning, 3D motion
measurement, eye-gaze tracking, material and people-related testing. The
facility is equipped with a variety of computer-based transducers and
instruments to measure force, motion, physiological indices and environmental
stressors. Some of the portable equipment are used
for performing field tests in various settings. The environmental chamber
provides a controlled environment for studies related to lighting and
temperature. The various equipment helps understand
the human psychological, physiological, and biomechanical capacities for
efficient, sustained and healthful human performance in different
environments. Research studies
have been performed for many multi-national companies such as Honeywell,
Motorola, Symbol Technologies, Selve, and local
companies such as Exxon-Mobil Corp., Kowloon-Canton Railway, MTR Corporation,
Hong Kong Telecom, Iconmedia, Sprandi
to name a few. The aim of the
laboratory is to design and develop products that fit people in terms of
physical, physiological and cognitive needs. |
