Pilots are faced with critical tasks or crisis situations. The superior analysis of their environment needs to create a highly operational link between the machine and its pilot. Mastered interfaces are key to a safe and solid pilot-to-airplane relationship. Through behavioral research and a multi-discipline approach, Opéra Ergonomie’s highly qualified staff looks the specialized components of ergonomics including human factors, product engineering and the human-to-machine relationship to develop the best ergonomic solutions for many industries including aerospace, automotive, petroleum, logistics and more.
