THE PROBLEM OF HUMAN FACTORS IN UNMANNED SYSTEMS
Keywords:
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, human factor, human operator activity, automation, training of UAV operators
Abstract
With the advent of unmanned systems, the development of ergonomics entered a new stage in the study of human-machine interaction and exacerbated security problems. The requirements for security and reliability of both the systems themselves and their main link, the human operator, have changed. New challenges – new human problems in digital systems. Digitization has allowed the creation of unmanned systems, but has also created an ergonomic contradiction “the growth of automation – the complication of the problem of the human factor”. Unmanned aerial systems have unique ergonomic problems associated with the characteristics of the UAV operator and the technical features of the UAVs themselves as complex systems. In this regard, the analysis of the causes of the ongoing manifestations of the human factor phenomenon in the functioning of unmanned systems, as well as the search for ways to reduce them, is relevant. The purpose of the work is a meta-analysis of the problem of the human factor in complex systems that actively use ICT, using the example of unmanned aerial systems. The article provides a critical look at the problems of the human factor in unmanned aircraft, which are not solved within the framework of existing approaches.
