Our expertise in developing human factors solutions enables the optimisation of human performance and human interaction with products, processes and systems
When it comes to the integration of technology with people, it pays to involve our Human Factors expertise as early in the development programme as possible. Our ability to optimise human interaction with products,processes and systems has been proven over the course of 40 years.
Positioned as one of Europe’s leading industrial centres for human factors solutions, we offer world-class specialists in subjects such as situational awareness, mental workload and human vision. Our suite of specialist facilities includes laboratories dedicated to vision, eyemovement recording, audio, 3D display technologies and usability, enabling us to provide unparalleled expertise to our customers.
The Advanced Technology Centre incorporates research, testing,development and engineering capabilities, where we address and integrate the ‘hard’ technological issues and the ‘soft’ humanrelated issues, such as working practices, task sharing, cultural phenomena and training.
By working in partnership with our customers from the earliest possible moment,we are able to anticipate and design for exact requirements, not just of the people who will operate the end-product, but those who will maintain and support it.
We provide tailored solutions that will allow for the management of all the critical issues that surround people. This expertise has been applied in both military and commercial environments – in the air, on land and at sea. Whatever the task, our philosophy is to build an absolute understanding of end user requirements to ensure seamless human integration with the optimum technology solution. This often involves analysing interactions which have been taken for granted, translating concepts into something tangible, and turning subjective notions into objective reality.
