FHWA-RD-03-063

This is one of a series of reports produced as part of a contract to develop precise and detailed human factors design guidelines for in-vehicle display icons and other information elements. The contractual effort consists of three phases: analytical, empirical, and integrative. This report summarizes the analytical, empirical, and integrative phases of the "In-Vehicle Display Icons and Other Information Elements" project. It is an overview of the process used to meet the primary goal of the project: to provide designers of in-vehicle technologies with a set of design guidelines for in-vehicle display icons and other information elements.

In-Vehicle Display Icons and Other Information Elements Volume I: Guidelines

FHWA-RD-03-065

Because of the speed with which in-vehicle information system devices are entering the automotive marketplace, many research issues associated with the design of in-vehicle visual symbols and other information elements have not been adequately addressed. The overall goal of the "In-Vehicle Display Icons and Other Information Elements" project has been to provide the designers of these in-vehicle technologies with a set of design guidelines for in-vehicle display icons and other information elements.
