Design of Visual and Auditory Human-Machine Interfaces with User Participation and Knowledge Support

more often and more systematically in industrial design projects. In addition to a systematic design approach with user participation, different forms of knowledge support are appropriate means for achieving good design solutions. This article outlines the functionalities of human-machine interfaces (Sect. 2), describes systematic design stages with user participation (Sect. 3), explains possibilities of knowledge-based design support (Sect. 4), and exemplifies designs of visual and auditory displays (Sect. 5). Thereby, the paper summarizes several contributions from earlier publications of this author (JOHANNSEN 1994, 1995, 1997a,b, 1999, 2000, JOHANNSEN et al. 1995, 1997a,b).
