Potential benefits of eye tracking within process control monitoring tasks

Statistically, about 70% of the process industry accidents in refinery control room are caused by human error. It is necessary to develop a deeper understanding interaction between humans and automated systems. This experiment investigated effectiveness Overview Displays using eye-tracking measures. Specifically, operators were presented with three that have been adopted oil gas under two levels difficulty for each display. The dependent variables include five eye-movement metrics previous studies related cognitive processing. results indicated Display type significantly affected behavior. consistency eye tracking performance suggesting possibility measures could be used indicate results. findings increase operator assessment effectiveness.
