It is very diffcult to applied ergonomics data & experiments in industrial design. At the industrial design process attempted toadoption a egonomics. But sometimes easyto use ergonomics data and at other times very hard to adopted a element into a design process. Industrial design of the essence is a sensual act. As ergonomics data is to the hardware, sois the design sense to the software. The harmony are important to hardware & software of design process. New products demand to new form. Therefore, designer neglect to ergonomics experiments for user. Anyway, ergonomics experiments & data endlessly applied to more things year after year. This paper show improved computer front design with graphic, knobs size & control panel tilt angle.

Human factors engineering has been taught in the design fields and considered as a necessary course for design students, We, ergonomists working with a design department, analyzed the current status of ergonomics curricula in the Korean design colleges. Sixty one percent of schools with design departments were offering ergonomics courses and most courses were electives. Comparatively more ergonomic courses were offered in industrial design and digital media departments. Ergonomic and human factors knowledge might not properly be acquired with this current status of the design curricula and systematic solutions should be considered and prepared for the future Korean designers.

Currently an office in information society is advanced to a digitalized VDT office. The VDT office has a natural luminous system prioritizing visual perception and so importance of lighting design by artificial lighting is emphasized in the VDT office. The purpose of the study is to analyze Illumination and Luminance for lighting design by the standard of ergonomics in the VDT office. The study analyzed Illumination and Luminance in the main control room of an nuclear power plant needing a design of ergonomics ACR(Advanced Control Room) type Ling Ao phase II NPP MCR in Guangdong, China. The study examined the relativity of ACR characteristics to its operator's duties and set up an outline of lighting design, the standard of ergonomics and input data for the analysis. Thus, the study examined appropriateness with the standard of ergonomics setting up the analyzed Illumination and Luminance and drew a conclusion.

Ergonomic ship design aims to improve the safety and convenience of crew and passenger. Recently, ergonomic design is a key issue in the warship design, as a basis of analysing and evaluating ergonomic design and evaluation methods for warship, existing military design guidelines and navy criteria in the fields of ergonomics were surveyed. Also, the methodology including ergonomic human model was introduced. Finally, it is shown that the ergonomics evaluation of a design at the early stage of warship design can be performed using commercial ergonomics evaluation model such as Delmia's ERGO.

The purpose of the paper is to review current trends and future issues of automotive ergonomics. The current trends include 1) universal design considering for regional differences, elderly drivers, female drivers, 2) quantification of driver's discomfort 3) trade-off between design trends and comfort, 4) digital ergonomic evaluation with digital human models 5) optimization of driver's interface. The future issues of automotive ergonomics cover 1) intelligent driver assistance system 2) Fun-to-drive and 3) differentiation from other vehicles based on ergonomics.

In this paper, we propose the ergonomics design method in shape design applicable which considers the user interface for railroad. This study focuses on ergonomics design and sensibility engineering design, user interface, which should be considered from the conceptual design stage of the rolling. Human's sensitivity and User Interface of railroad investigated ergonomics studies of several type. The sensibility engineering design made approach of user center design in railroad design. New design railroad to satisfaction passenger's various desire, to safety and convenient through high technology, to sufficient passenger's aesthetic sense. Therefore, we have application to properly of ergonomics design element in railroad design. we expert visual design and user interface help greatly in excellent railroad design.

Although applying experimental data of ergonomics to a industrial design seems to be a difficult task, making every effort to the application of ergonomics to the industrial design process is still attempted. Sometimes, it is easy to use experimental data, yet, it is very hard to take that data and implement it into the design process. The essence of industrial design depends on human sensitivity, thus we can call the sense of design the software and the experimental data of ergonomics the hardware. The harmony of this hard & software is very important for the process and development of design. New products always demand new forms. Accordingly, it is easy for designers to neglect applying experiments and ergonomic data to products for public users. However, the study of ergonomics data continuously helps to be applied to more products year after year. This paper explores, how to improve the design of the tilting angle related to the shape of knobs on a front panel of a computer monitor. The results of experiments show that a tilted angle is more efficient than that of straight-type when placed on the front panel of a computer monitor with a power button.

Design that is emotionally gratifying is a product design that has been produced by considering user's emotions to give satisfaction through a compositive integration of environmental elements, user's psychological and cognitive element and products' physical elements. In the 21c, where this process of integration is much more appreciated, it could be predicted that the competitiveness of a product relies not on technological aspect but on how close the product to a human being as a communication aid. In the world these days, the changes of lifestyle has been excelled due to the rapid growth of scientific technology. It is needed more than ever for the designers to participate in Human Sensibility Ergonomics to cope with the changes and to design products that are emotionally correct. Therefore, Human Sensibility Ergonomics and design should work closely, organizing a system to sharing the research outcomes and investing opportunities for numerous researchers to study.

The great growth and development in the automobile industry have been made at the hardware site consisting of Car over about 100 years. The biggest key of future automobile industry with fierce competition is up to product development with high customer satisfaction through the ergonomics that is applied to car efficiently and effectively. Until Now, The Study of Ergonomics has been used for effective Car design. But At the 21st Century automotive, it will be used for Survival through the differentiation and merchantability of vehicle in highly competitive. That is a big difference. We will review the role of ergonomics in the vehicle development stage with Ssangyong Case.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze the trend of ergonomics field in overall intellectual property rights in Korea, and suggest the direction for the future development. Background: Many ergonomists are trying to pursue optimal human well-being and safety, and create more convenient designs for human use. For these reasons, intellectual property rights may be used to protect the legitimate rights of originative and innovative ergonomic designs. Method: Intellectual property rights were reviewed by using Korea Intellectual Property Rights Information Service (KIPRIS), and then were classified and analyzed according to three intellectual property rights (patent, utility model, design), International Patent Classification (IPC) and ergonomics application areas. Results: The total number of intellectual property rights registered in the ergonomics field in terms of three intellectual property rights (patent, utility model, design) showed 48,814 which occupied 5.97% of the total registered Korea's intellectual property rights. Within three intellectual property rights, patent (87%) was recorded overwhelmingly higher than utility model (9%) and design (4%). Conclusion: The current trend of patent, utility model and design in the ergonomics field in Korea tend to increase over time. It is suggested based on the analysis in this study that continuing research and development should be focused on electricity section in accordance with the global trend. Application: The results of this study can direct the ergonomists to the areas of intellectual property rights in the ergonomics field that should focus on the research and development in terms of three intellectual property rights, IPC and ergonomics application areas.
