Abstract
The research is an exploratory case study of the lunar landing suit. The purpose is to explore innovative prototype solutions to improve the Human-Machine Interaction (HMI) efficiency of the lunar landing suit based on human factor ergonomics simulations, simulation experiments, and modern industrial design theories.
The HMI design in Complex Product System (CoPS) such as spacesuit is mainly based on functional requirements. The main principle is to apply human-centered HMI symbiosis as the design guiding ideology. The goal is to improve people’s efficiency in system control, including reducing operation response time and improving operation accuracy. The result is the establishment of a new framework of HMI design for the spacesuit, which can effectively support the design practice. Based on this framework, a new conceptual rendering of the spacesuit is designed.
