Colleagues, Dr. Nicklas Dahlstrom from Emirates Airlines and I are excited to share with you a Special Issue of the International Journal of Human-Computer Interaction that we guestedited on Human Computer Interaction on the Modern Flight: https://www.tandfonline.com/toc/hihc20/37/7?nav=tocList
The special issue brings together new knowledge and best practices, from the scientific community and industry, with the goal of shedding light on areas in need of improvement and potential new solutions for maintaining effective HCI on the flight deck. The articles within the special issue incorporate quantitative and qualitative research methods along with HCI design techniques to examine current and future use of technology on the flight deck and how it impacts pilot performance. Although this issue represents a small portion of the challenges pilots face when interacting with technology on the modern flight deck, it will hopefully serve as a lens to focus attention on the many HCI issues that pilots face, the progress that has been made to date, and the many areas that show potential for improvement.
Please check it out!
Best,
Meredith
