Abstract

Technology in the home environment has the potential to support older adults in a variety of ways. We took an interdisciplinary approach (human factors/ergonomics and computer science) to develop a technology "coach" that could support older adults in learning to use a medical device. Our system provided a computer vision system to track the use of a blood glucose meter and provide users with feedback if they made an error. This research could support the development of an in-home personal assistant to coach individuals in a variety of tasks necessary for independent living.

设计技术教练:一个多学科团队为一个系统建模,该系统可在复杂医疗设备的用户出错时发出警报。
家庭环境中的技术有可能以各种方式为老年人提供支持。我们采用跨学科方法(人为因素/人体工程学和计算机科学)开发了一种技术 "教练",可以帮助老年人学习使用医疗设备。我们的系统提供了一个计算机视觉系统,用于跟踪血糖仪的使用情况,并在用户出错时提供反馈。这项研究可为开发居家个人助理提供支持,指导个人完成独立生活所需的各种任务。

期刊介绍: Ergonomics in Design: The Quarterly of Human Factors Applications is intended to serve the needs of practicing human factors/ergonomics professionals who are concerned with the usability of products, systems, tools, and environments. It provides up-to-date demonstrations of the importance of HF/E principles in design and implementation. Articles, case studies, anecdotes, debates, and interviews focus on the way in which HF/E research and methods are applied in the design, development, prototyping, test and evaluation, training, and manufacturing processes of a product or system.
