  1. Interface Examples CS5540 HCI Rich Riesenfeld Fall 2005

  2. Radio Shack Wiring Aid <RadioShack.com/support>

  3. Pros • Customized, targeted info • Good graphics • Good Help for using Help! • Integrated • Problem Spec • Answer • Order materials needed

  4. Pros • Integrated • Parts ordering online • Parts availability at various area stores • Distance to stores • Maps for ease of finding • Makes simple task of it!

  5. Cons • Does not label “Good” “Better” “Best” Solutions • Does not describe what is better about each improved solution • Why better? • What will I get for this? • What is difference in parts? • Does not always give right info • Often 3’ cables work better than 6’ cables • Suggests 12’ substitution allowed

  6. Harrier Jump Jet

  7. Harrier Aircraft • 33% of Harriers crashes at due to “Pilot Error,” according to reports • What does that say? • Bad pilots? • Problems with aircraft? • Difficulty controlling plane? • Interface question might be indicated

  9. McDonnell Douglas AV-8 Harrier www.airandspacemagazine.com/ASM/Web/Special/Ethell/Pirep5.html: Flying the Harrier requires an absolute mastery of vertical flight basics and helicopter experience is usually mandatory, even if a new pilot has to be given several hours in a chopper before flying the jet. The coordination required to transition from vertical to level flight, especially when accelerating away from a hover, is critical. (cont)

  10. If the aircraft gets turned "out of wind," that is, if it is not pointing into the wind, it begins to roll over and fall out from under you. A little ten cent weathervane in front of the windshield turns out to be the most valuable instrument on board, indicating wind direction in relation to the aircraft. Keep it pointing forward and everything is fine. (cont)

  11. Take-off and landing comes in eight possible combinations...the pilot never gets bored. Take-off: conventional, short (STO), rolling vertical (RVTO), vertical (VTO). Landing: conventional, slow, rolling vertical (RVL), vertical (VL).
