Abstract

Developing an enclosure for a portable, industrial gas monitor began with observation of users. Analysis indicated that product form and method of auditory display may be directly related to user safety. Concepts of safety-enhancing forms were generated; a brief field simulation with mock-ups identified the final approach; auditory and compatible visual displays were devised. A final overview describes other design features of the product as it is being marketed today.
