Experimental Study on Simulated Flight Performance with Monochrome and Colorful Display for See-Through Displays

摘要

Objective To study the simulated flight performance with monochrome and colorful display for see-through displays, and propose the best color scheme of information. Methods Ninety-one fighter pilots participated in the experiment. In virtue of monochrome and colorful display effects experimental procedure for see-through displays information in fighters, pilots finished simulated flight and combat tasks, respectively, in six color schemes and evaluated every color scheme after the simulated tasks. Results (1) In the simulated tasks, the performance indexes were not significant in six color schemes. (2) In monochrome scheme (scheme No. 1), it was not propitious for pilots to rapidly identify and response to the alerting information when they displayed in green, and there was more advantages when displayed in red and yellow (scheme No. 3 and No. 5). (3) In subjective evaluations, scheme No. 2 was evaluated better, and scheme No. 3 was in the next place. Conclusions The scheme No. 2 and No. 3 were recommended as the best color schemes, but this conclusion was only primary, and verifying researches should be conducted later.
