“…It takes longer to find critical information in high workload conditions, which increases response delay and flight control error. The importance of understanding and minimizing complexity on display have been widely acknowledged [14][15][16]. Some concerns also have been recognized related to the information change rate.…”

Flying an aircraft in low visibility is still a challenging task for the pilot. It requires precise and accurate situational awareness (SA) in real-time. A Headup Display (HUD) is used to project collimated internal and external flight information on a transparent screen in the pilot's forward field of view, which eliminates the change of eye position between Head-Down-Display (HDD) instruments and outer view through the windshield. Implementation of HUD increases the SA and reduces the workload for the pilot. But to provide a better flying capability for the pilot, projecting extensive information on HUD causes human factor issues that reduce pilot performance and lead to accidents in low visibility conditions. The literature shows that human error is the leading cause of more than 70% of aviation accidents. In this study, the ability of the pilot able to read background and symbology information of HUD at a different level of background seen complexity, such as symbology brightness, transition time, amount of Symbology, size etc., in low visibility conditions is discussed. The result shows that increased complexity on the HUD causes more detection errors.

“…This is similar to the concept of decluttering, where elements that are of less importance to the main task are made less salient compared to surrounding elements via methods such as dimming, size reduction, turning symbols into dots (dotting) or complete removal from visual displays (St. John et al, 2005). In a 2021 study, decluttering via dimming and dotting on static displays minimized visual complexity, which improved visual search and target performance for both novices and experts (Lazaro et al, 2021). Generally, decluttering has been limited to elements on electronic displays, such as monitors, whereas DR is applied to the physical world and can remove large objects or even people (O'Hara et al, 2007).…”

Combining theories of learning and a novel technology, diminished reality (DR), may aid in the creation of training for complex tasks in distracting environments. DR can de-emphasize elements of an environment to improve attention and there may be a benefit in extending these effects to training methods. One method of diminishment, called emphasis training, aids learning by directing attention to a specific part of a task, rather than the whole task, which may improve performance. However, high initial performance can hinder learning, suggesting that “desirable difficulties,” such as outside stressors during a task, are key to designing training that scaffolds learners to be able to work with distractions. However, there may be a level of distraction that is an impediment to learning. We hypothesize that using DR to gradually introduce desirable difficulties will train the operator to perform in distracting environments, enhance long term retention, and promote transfer of skills.

By using the form and specific process of human-computer interaction to comprehensively understand and judge whether users can accurately and quickly recognize products, it has a positive effect on the current visual and perceptual interface design work. On the basis of understanding the achievements of current related scientific research projects, this paper analyzes how to construct and design a new visual and perceptual interface based on human-computer interaction tasks by studying the main factors that affect users’ cognition of visual information interface.
