Ask HN: User-interface design guidelines when building for first-responders?

4 pointsMemosyne1 comment

As an exercise, I'm wondering if there are any resources for learning how to design modern graphical interfaces for first-responders (i.e. military, paramedics, police, etc...)? Would material design be suitable for such a high-risk environment?

Here’s a sampling of published recommendations:

MIL-STD-1472G, Human Engineering, § 5.2.2, Displays—content

FAA AC 20-175, Controls for Flight Deck Systems, Chapter 3, Additional Guidance for Multifunction Controls

SAE ARP4032, Human Engineering Considerations in the Application of Color to Electronic Aircraft Displays

ISA-TR101.02-2019, HMI [Human-Machine Interface] Usability and Performance

IEC 62366-1, Medical devices – Part 1: Application of usability engineering to medical devices
