Human Factors in Interface
Design
Computers have long been feared by the ordinary, everyday
person. Affraid to learn how they work, and intimidated by the screens
look, people just never tried to use them. Now that computers are popping
up on every desktop in America, we have no choice but to learn. And with
the increase of computer technology and research, computers are getting
friendlier everyday. People don't even realize that they are using a
computer sometimes because of the ease of use. Human factors research and
interface design research have made all of this possible. This web site is
dedicated to some organizations and companies that are making our futures
a little easier by their dedication to human factors design.
