Abstract

In many fields, commercial programs or equipments are being developed and these are getting complicated more and more by adding advantages from existing products. In promoting the usability of these products, design based on the information integration receives attention However, is information integration always better? In this study, we tried to demonstrate information distribution is more efficient than information integration through conning display design that [vas propelled by many countries' classification societies. We designed the conning display using many ergonomic methods and conducted its performance experiment. Results of the performance experiment reveal that conning display raving two modes (one shows the functions related with ocean and coast voyage and another shows the functions related with docking and leaving port) is more efficient.
