ISO/TS 9241-411:2012
Ergonomics of human-system interaction - Part 411 : evaluation methods for the design of physical input devices
1 Scope This part of ISO 9241 specifies evaluation methods for the design of physical input devices for interactive systems. It provides guidance for the laboratory assessment of conformance with ISO 9241-410 for keyboards, mice, pucks, joysticks, trackballs, touch pads, tablets/overlays, touch-sensitive screens, and styli/light pens. Its provisions apply only to keyboards identified as "full-size" or "compact" by the manufacturer, but nevertheless could provide useful guidance in the design of other keyboards. It is not applicable to those of the requirements of ISO 9241-410 that relate to gesture- and voice-input systems.

La présente partie de l'ISO 9241 fournit les exigences et recommandations pour la conception des dispositifs d'entrée autres que les claviers. Elle traite uniquement des dispositifs pour lesquels les informations ergonomiques publiées à ce jour sont suffisantes.La présente partie de l'ISO 9241 s'applique à plusieurs types de dispositifs d'entrée autres que les claviers conçus pour une utilisation sédentaire. Elle fournit des recommandations fondées sur des facteurs ergonomiques pour les dispositifs d'entrée suivants: souris, souris optiques, manettes, boules roulantes, tablettes et barres graphiques, écrans tactiles, stylets et photostyles. Les recommandations portent sur la conception de ces dispositifs dédiés à des tâches de bureau spécifiques, de manière à prendre en compte les contraintes et les capacités inhérentes à l'utilisateur. La présente partie de l'ISO 9241 spécifie des méthodes permettant de déterminer le degré de conformité, à travers l'observation, les performances, et le mesurage des caractéristiques physiques des différents dispositifs.
The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.
The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
