Touch on the flight deck: The impact of display location, size, touch technology & turbulence on pilot performance

Conclusions in light of fatigue data, subjective data and validity data • Some support for more muscle fatigue for outboard displays and resistive displays • Highest fatigue prevalent in ‘flying’ shoulder • Strong preference against touch in the overhead location • Validation of need for hand stabilization • Validation of higher errors for outboard position being due, at least in large part, to handedness. • Low correlation between objective and subjective muscle fatigue data is interesting — Data shows people were experiencing more fatigue than they thought they were
