Large Touchscreens: Are They the Magic Bullet? (Room Versailles 3-4)

Do large touchscreens improve ease of use, increase productivity and eliminate discomfort? A field study run at a major oil and gas company unveiled surprising results. Geoscientists who used two different combinations of large dual displays were observed and interviewed, plus each participant provided ratings about their perceived productivity, ease of use and rate of discomfort. The key findings provide a framework for best ergonomic practices that will help your corporate ergo program proactively determine when a large touchscreen may be an appropriate intervention.
