Research Study 145 / 200
Professional tools are not designed for use with gloves
Gripping, pressing and mode selection do not accommodate the protective gear worn on site.
Three-step solution method
- Observe task movements and contact points while users wear their actual work gloves.
- Compare grip designs, control dimensions, and operating mode feedback.
- Evaluate the performance of different designs using the same work task.
Key Deliverables
- Gloved-Use Task Log
- Grip Models
- Control Prototypes
Verification Approach
Record slips, accidental inputs, and errors in identifying operating modes.
