Working there requires highly responsible action. Control rooms often contain many screens, so important signals are potentially located out of the direct field of view. Detecting signals there is more difficult. The goal of the study is to identify signals’ properties, which guide the operators’ attention reliably. This is accomplished by capturing the attention within the direct field of view. Simultaneously stimuli are placed in the peripheral field of view on a background with visual ambient noise. Detection rate and -time are recorded. First results of the ongoing study are presented here. Later work-design indications are to be derived and put into practice, to foster a human-oriented design, resulting in a more secure work in control rooms. The German Research Foundation (DFG) funds the project (No. 358406233).
