EVALUATION OF HUMAN PERFORMANACE IN A SUPERVISORY I INSPECTION NSPECTIONTASK MONITORING MULTIPLE HYBRID INSPECTION SYSTEMS

摘要

The demand for consistent quality has led to 100% inspection using automated systems rather thanthe traditional sampling with human inspectors. How However, these automated systems cannot adapt toever, novel situations to meet the required performance w without human intervention. The need for cost- effective and superior inspection performance has r effective resulted in hybrid systems in which the functionsare allocated depending on the capabilities of humans and machines. With the increasing availabilityof computer technology due to decreased costs and s size, the role of humans in inspection systems ischanging from that of a continuous "online" inspect inspector to that of a supervisor of multiple tasks. Thisstudy uses a computer-based visual inspection simulator to investigate the role of the human as asupervisor in inspection systems, with the main focus on the effect of performance of one hybridinspection system on human decision to intervene in another system to optimize the inspectionperformance.
