Abstract

More workers are involved into interaction with graphic user interfaces most part of the working shift. However, low ergonomic qualities or incorrect usage of graphic user interface could result in risk of unfavorable influence on workers’ health. The authors revealed and classified typical scenarios of graphic user interface usage. Various types of graphic user interface and operator occupations are characterized by various parameters of exertion, both biomechanical and psycho-physiological. Among main elements of graphic user interface are presence or absence of mouse or joystick, intuitive clearness, balanced palette, fixed position of graphic elements, comfort level, etc. Review of various graphic user interface and analysis of their characteristics demonstrated possibility of various occupational risk factors. Some disclosed ergonomic problems are connected with incorporation of graphic user interface into various information technologies and systems. The authors presented a role of ergonomic characteristics of graphic user interface for safe and effective work of operators, gave examples of algorithms to visualize large information volumes for easier comprehension and analysis. Correct usage of interactive means of computer visualization with competent design and observing ergonomic principles will optimize mental work in innovative activity and preserve operators’ health. Prospective issues in this sphere are ergonomic interfaces developed with consideration of information hygiene principles, big data analysis technology and automatically generated cognitive graphics.
