ISO/TS 9241-411 is the 411th part of the multiple series that specifies evaluation methods for the design of physical input devices for interactive systems.
ISO/TS 9241-411 provides guidance for the laboratory assessment of conformance with ISO 9241-410 for keyboards, mice, pucks, joysticks, trackballs, touchpads, tablets/overlays, touch-sensitive screens, and styli/light pens. Its provisions apply only to keyboards identified as “full-size” or “compact” by the manufacturer but nevertheless could provide useful guidance in the design of other keyboards.
Note: ISO/TS 9241-411 is not applicable to those of the requirements of ISO 9241-410 that relate to gesture- and voice-input systems.
ISO/TS 9241-411 on Ergonomics of human-system interaction is useful for:
Input devices are a means for users to enter data into interactive systems.
An input device is a sensor that can detect changes in user behaviour (gestures, moving fingers, etc.) and transform them into signals to be interpreted by the interactive system.
ISO/TS 9241-411 addresses the following different evaluation methods:
Overall, ISO/TS 9241-411 specifies methodologies for analyzing and comparing input devices for interactive systems in the laboratory.
