Abstract

In parallel with the development of ship equipment, bridge systems have been improved, but marine accidents due to human error have not been reduced. Recently, research in nautical bridge equipment has focused on suitable ergonomic designs in order to reduce these errors due to human factors. In a bridge of a ship, there are numerous auditory signals that deliver important information clearly to the sailors. However, only a few studies have been conducted related to the human recognition of these auditory signals. There are three types of auditory signals: voice alarms, abstract sounds, and auditory icons. This study was conducted in order to design more appropriate auditory icons using a sensibility evaluation method. The auditory icons were rated to have five warning situations (engine failure, fire, steering failure, low power, and collision) using the Semantic Differential Method. It is expected that the results of this study will be used as basic data for auditory displays inside bridges and for integrated bridge alarm systems.

선박 기술 발전에 따라 다양한 장비가 개발되고 있지만 인적요인에 의한 해양사고는 여전히 지속적으로 발생하고 있다. 이러한 상황에서 인적요인에 의한 사고 감소를 위하여 선교 내 항해장비의 인간공학적 설계가 많은 관심의 대상이 되고 있다. 선교에는 항해 및 통신장비로부터 나오는 음향 신호 등 항해사에게 정보를 전달하기 위한 다양한 청각 신호들이 존재한다. 하지만 이러한 청각 신호, 청각 경고음에 대한 인간의 인지능력에 관한 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 청각 경고음은 크게 음성(speech), 함축적 소리(abstract sound), 청각 아이콘(auditory icon)으로 구분 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 청각 경고음 중 청각아이콘을 활용하여 5가지의 경보상황(엔진, 화재, 조타, 전기, 충돌)에서 청각아이콘에 대한 감성평가를 통해 각 상황에 적합한 청각아이콘을 선별하였다. 5가지 경보상황 중 뚜렷한 경향이 나타난 2가지 경보상황(엔진, 충돌)에 대하여 분석을 하였다. 본 연구 결과는 선교 내 청각표시장치와 통합선교알람관리시스템을 위한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
