Affordances and Safe Design of Assistance Wearable Virtual Environment of Gesture
This work addresses safety issues in wearable virtual environments for technical gestures in aerospace and health, but it appears incremental as it builds on existing concepts like affordances and integrative physiology.
The paper tackled the problem of designing safe and reliable assistance wearable virtual environments for technical gestures in aerospace and health domains by integrating human and system requirements into an isomorphic engineering framework. The result was an experimental approach tested in laboratory and parabolic flights, with discussions on its relevance for future applications.
Safety and reliability are the main issues for designing assistance wearable virtual environment of technical gesture in aerospace, or health application domains. That needs the integration in the same isomorphic engineering framework of human requirements, systems requirements and the rationale of their relation to the natural and artifactual environment.To explore coupling integration and design functional organization of support technical gesture systems, firstly ecological psychologyprovides usa heuristicconcept: the affordance. On the other hand mathematical theory of integrative physiology provides us scientific concepts: the stabilizing auto-association principle and functional interaction.After demonstrating the epistemological consistence of these concepts, we define an isomorphic framework to describe and model human systems integration dedicated to human in-the-loop system engineering.We present an experimental approach of safe design of assistance wearable virtual environment of gesture based in laboratory and parabolic flights. On the results, we discuss the relevance of our conceptual approach and the applications to future assistance of gesture wearable systems engineering.
