  2. The Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft The Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft undertakesappliedresearchofdirectutilitytopublicand private enterpriseandofwidebenefittosociety. • More than 80 research institutions, including 59 Fraunhofer institutes • 18,000 employees, the majority educated in natural sciences or engineering • Annual research volume of 1.66 billion Euros, of which 1.4 billion Euros is generated through contract research • International collaboration through representative offices in Europe, the US, Asia and the Middle East

  3. Fraunhofer Institute for Communication,Information Processing andErgonomics FKIE Research Areas Analysis of sensor data and sensor modeling Multi-sensor data fusion Unmanned Systems Robust heterogeneous networks Secure communication and IT security(Cyber Defense) Distributed information processing in heterogeneous systems Information and knowledge management Ergonomics and human-machine systems Fraunhofer FKIE develops application-oriented technologies for C4ISR systems and develops models, methods and tools for network-centric warfare location Wachtberg founded in 1963 staff 360 budget ~30 Mio. € director Prof. Dr. Peter Martini deputy director Prof. Dr.-Ing.

  6. Ergonomic design of mobile devices Motivation: • Mobile computers ≠ stationarycomputers • Military application ≠ private application • Research studiestoassessfitnessforuse • Design of a visualizationandinteractionconcepton a conceptualandtechnicalbasis • Performing CD&E-studiesbymeansofexperimental setupswith prototype character

  7. Ergonomic design of mobile computers- examples - Contextandrequirementanalysis: • Future operational scenarios, e.g. urban operations Information density: • Only 5 +/- 2 trackedtargetsareprocessed Multimodal operationdisplays / tactiledisplays GUI-design: • Font sizewith HMDs: 20-42 pt • Influenceofwalking on inputperformancestartingatID>4 (e.g.: iPhone: 1,2 cm (should), 1 cm (is)) • Font sizeforSmartphones: ongoing ApplicationofSeriousGaming for Education and Training

  8. A comprehensive UI conceptfor COTS basedwearablecomputingsystems Diversityof mobile devicesallowstask-tunedICT support Approach: • Combiningseveraldevicestofoster positive andmitigate negative impacts • Development ofdistributedandconsistent UI across all devices Challenges: • Identifysuitableselectionofdevices • Identifysupportrelationsamongthese • Determinewhichdeviceisacutally in useandwhichgoaltheuserhas in mind Distributed UI

  9. ADL in Maintenance: Collaborationbetween expert and remote technician Anontations Step-by-stepanimations Requirements: • Common ground for comm. • Limited bandwidth prevents video conferencing Solution: • Transfer of camera parameters(Orientation, position) • Visualization for expertapplying VR-technology • Visualization for technicianapplying AR-technology component ID cameraposition cameraorientation Technician: AR System Expert: VR System
