Device usability
Effective product design centres around starting from a detailed understanding of how the product is used and translating these into a comprehensive set of user requirements.
Applying our understanding of biomechanics, anthropometry, anatomy, physiology and human behaviour to the design of a product will ensure that it is safe, easy to use and does not pose any health risks to the user.
As part of the human factors support to the design and development of drug delivery devices and other medical equipment, Human Engineering has provided advice on design features such as the use of colour, font and instructions to improve access for disabled and able-bodied users.
