Cognitive Ergonomics
Cognitive ergonomics is the study of how our minds interact with tools, systems, and environments. It focuses on understanding mental processes like perception, memory, and decision-making to design products and workspaces that enhance user performance and comfort. By considering how people think and process information, designers can create systems that are easier to use, reduce errors, and improve overall safety and efficiency. Essentially, it’s about optimizing the human experience in various settings, ensuring that technology and tasks align well with how we naturally think and behave.
