40、ut devices are a means for users to enter data into interactive systems. Generally speaking, an input device is a sensor that can detect changes in user behaviour (gestures, moving fingers, etc.) and transform it into signals to be interpreted by the interactive system. An input device is regarded a
41、s the combination of hardware with the software designed to use it (e.g. a driver). This part of ISO 9241 defines design criteria for products on the basis of relevant properties of physical input devices as laid down in ISO 9241-400:2007. It is intended to cover assessment methods for laboratory us
42、e (in order to accelerate future development of test and evaluation methods) and user organizations in future parts of ISO 9241. Most of the principles presented in this part of ISO 9241 have previously been defined or outlined in International Standards for keyboards and other input devices (ISO 92
43、41-4 and ISO 9241-9). Where necessary, definitions of terms have been reformulated so that they are applicable for all input devices. ISO 9241 was originally developed as a seventeen-part International Standard on the ergonomics requirements for office work with visual display terminals. As part of
44、the standards review process, a major restructuring of ISO 9241 was agreed to broaden its scope, to incorporate other relevant standards and to make it more usable. The general title of the revised ISO 9241, “Ergonomics of human-system interaction”, reflects these changes and aligns the standard wit
45、h the overall title and scope of Technical Committee ISO/TC 159, Ergonomics, Subcommittee SC 4, Ergonomics of human-system interaction. The revised multipart standard is structured as a series of standards numbered in the “hundreds”: the 100 series deals with software interfaces, the 200 series with
46、 human centred design, the 300 series with visual displays, the 400 series with physical input devices and so on. See Annex A for an overview of the entire ISO 9241 series. 6 DIN EN ISO 9241-410:2012-12 EN ISO 9241-410:2008 + A1:2012 (E) 1 Scope This part of ISO 9241 specifies criteria based on ergo
47、nomics factors for the design of physical input devices for interactive systems including keyboards, mice, pucks, joysticks, trackballs, trackpads, tablets and overlays, touch-sensitive screens, styli and light pens, and voice- and gesture-controlled devices. It gives guidance on the design of these
48、 devices, taking into consideration the capabilities and limitations of users, and specifies generic design criteria for physical input devices, as well as specific criteria for each type of device. Requirements for the design of products are given either as a result of context-free considerations, or else can be determined based on the specified design criteria for the intended use; such specified criteria generally having been subdivided into task-orient
