Beschreibungen/Notizen

• In order to compare the effects of visual and auditory instructions on the crew when guiding astronauts to complete the procedural tasks in the space station, in this study, subjects were recruited to complete the programmed task of starting from the node module, locating the scientific cabinet and spectrometer, and finally operating the orbital replaceable unit on the spectrometer. Meanwhile, the task performance, eye movement parameters, and cognitive load induced by 2 kinds of instructions in the task were statistically analyzed. The results showed that there were highly significant differences in terms of task completion time, the NASA-TLX (Task Load Index) total score, and eye movement index between the 2 instructions ( P < 0.01). There were also significant differences in error rate and effort ( P < 0.05). This study proves that visual instruction interaction is better than auditory instruction. Our work provides important reference for the selection of human–computer interaction mode for procedural tasks on space stations. It also provides the experience and theoretical evidence missing so far and proves the benefits of augmented reality assistance in terms of task performance and human factors.
