How to Capture Attention Using Frames of Reference with Vibrotactile Information
SessionPP3: Tactile Displays
DescriptionThe ability to capture attention in multi-actor complex tasks provides an understanding of the cognitive processing needed to execute a series of events accurately and efficiently. When completing complex tasks, how an alert provides information for a human operator to respond becomes increasingly complicated. Although vibrotactile alerts have been introduced into the design of complex systems, minimal research has looked at the specific perceptual and cognitive processing stages of haptic information. To ensure vibrotactile information can effectively direct human operators to make an appropriate motor response, determining which frame of reference automatically captures attention will help designers integrate them into system displays. Using stimulus-response mapping tasks with spatial conflict between the alert and response locations can determine which reference frame, external or internal, is appropriate for vibrotactile information processing under different contexts. The results of this study will provide fundamental knowledge of how to design haptic displays and tactile alerts.
