Abstract

The weapon system has developed by adding various functions because of the warfare change. And, an weapon system test set (WSTS) that is used to test and judge the condition of weapon system also deal with a lot of complex information. However, almost WSTS is developed on the basis of developer-centric. Because of it, it is hard to make a result by apprehending information on WSTS's display. Thus, I proposed a new display of WSTS by adapting the Ecological Interface Design(EID) Methodology to reduce operator's cognitive workload and assure safe testing. WSTS's Display is developed through Information Requirement and Work Domain Model as a result of Work Domain Analysis. The most powerful thing in the new display is that operator can identify his testing and status of WSTS directly. I expect that it reduces operator's cognitive workload and helps safe testing.

전장 환경이 변화함에 따라 무기체계에 다양한 기능이 탑재되고 있다. 이와 함께 무기체계의 이상 유무를 진단하는 무기체계점검장비 또한 이전보다 더 복잡하고 수많은 정보를 다루게 되었다. 하지만, 대부분의 무기체계점검장비는 개발자 중심으로 설계되어있다. 이 때문에, 운용자가 점검장비 디스플레이에 전시되는 정보들을 파악하여 무기체계의 이상 유무를 판단하기 쉽지 않다. 따라서, 점검장비 운용자의 인지부하를 줄이고, 무기체계의 안전한 점검을 수행할 수 있도록 무기체계점검장비 디스플레이를 개발하였다. 이를 위해 생태학적 인터페이스 디자인 기법을 적용하였다. 작업영역분석을 통해 작업영역 모델을 개발하고, 요구정보를 추출하여 무기체계점검장비 디스플레이를 개발하였다. 새로운 디스플레이의 가장 큰 장점은 사용자가 수행하는 점검과 점검장비의 상태를 직관적으로 확인할 수 있다는 것이다. 본 연구 결과로 제시된 디스플레이를 활용하여 운용자가 보다 효율적이고 안전하게 임무를 수행할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.
