Situational Awareness needs for system interaction design

This paper presents an analysis on Situational Awareness needs that will help to improve the interaction design between user(s) and system(s). Interaction design very much interested on how to design a product or a system used in working environment concerning how user interact and communicate with each other. Due to the limited study on Situational Awareness (SAW) that highlights on human interaction criteria, this study is aiming to provide some input on the cues related to perception, comprehension and projection from operators´ needs. We employ surveyed technique as to gather operators´ requirements and most of the targeted operators involved in this study are from the manufacturing industries. Findings on SAW needs are fully addressed to further explore SAW in interaction design study.
