Study Notes
Effective Visual Display
- Refers to the design and use of any interface that presents information through sight, optimizing user comfort, safety, and performance.
Visibility
- Information should be easily distinguishable with:
- Appropriate font size
- Color contrast
- Lighting
- Reduce glare from ambient light sources or utilize anti-glare filters
- Position the display at a comfortable distance based on task and user needs
Positioning
- Place the display where the user can see it without excessive head or neck movement
- Ideally, position the display at a 90-degree angle to the user's line of sight, especially for large screens
- Allow users to adjust the display height, tilt, and swivel for personalized comfort
Content and Information
- Use language and symbols understandable to the target audience
- Present information in a structured and easy-to-follow manner
- Use visual cues like color, size, or placement to emphasize critical information
Effective Displays
- Must have good visibility, being easily and clearly seen
- Should be within the user's field of vision and attract attention through flashing or changing in some other way
