Episode 84
HFESTG - Product Design
...and now for another Human Factors Minute! Did you know that the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society has 24 technical groups that are concerned with the human factors aspects of specific application areas?
One of those is the The Product Design Technical Group. This TG is dedicated to developing consumer products that are useful, usable, safe, and desirable. By applying the principles and methods of human factors, consumer research, and industrial design, the group works to ensure the success of products sold in the marketplace.
Product Design TG members focus on the design of commercial products (both hardware and software) and the product design process. They work in design teams including market
researchers, industrial designers, and engineers.
Members can play three key roles in the design of products from concept development, to competitive analysis.
Many members have integral roles in all parts of the design process including conceptual phases, prototyping, engineering, testing, and sales.
