Human factors in Aviation: A Survey

The topic of human factors is continually gaining higher levels of visibility in all spheres of engineering, however, the elements that drive future human interactions with emerging technologies have room for further studies. A considerable amount of effort has been invested in improving the physical motor skill-centric design considerations. Emerging aerospace organizations face the challenges of proper interpreting and implementing these emerging human factor requisites. A lot of the emphasis in the average design organization is typically centred around (hardware and software components: the system performing to its stated requirements, meeting the reliability specification, and the system’s impact safety of flight; but less is truly focused on all facets of the human in the loop.
