In this article we review recent and potential applications of optical neuroimaging to human factors and usability research. We focus specifically on functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) because of its cost-effectiveness and ease of implementation. Researchers have used fNIRS to assess a range of psychological phenomena relevant to human factors, such as cognitive workload, attention, motor activity, and more. It offers the opportunity to measure hemodynamic correlates of mental activity during task completion in human factors and usability studies. We also consider some limitations and future research directions.
在本文中，我们回顾了光学神经成像在人因工程学和可用性研究中的最新及潜在应用。我们特别关注功能近红外光谱技术（fNIRS），因为它具有成本效益且易于实施。研究人员已使用fNIRS来评估一系列与人因工程学相关的心理现象，如认知工作量、注意力、运动活动等。它为在人因工程学和可用性研究中测量任务完成过程中心理活动的血液动力学相关性提供了机会。我们还考虑了一些局限性和未来的研究方向。
