Summary

The current graphical user interface (GUI) of the P200 resides on a 9-inch touch screen. This interface is essentially a scaled-down version of a desktop application. However, feedback from users and operators indicates that the level of detail and complexity presented is not well-suited for such a small screen. This mismatch has led to usability issues, including difficulty in navigation, readability problems, and inefficient task execution.

Objectives

The main objectives of this thesis are:

• To analyze the current user interface and identify key areas for improvement.
• To design a new, user-friendly interface specifically tailored for a 9-inch touch screen.
• To test the new interface with actual users to ensure it meets their needs and improves overall user satisfaction and efficiency.
• To provide recommendations for future enhancements based on user feedback and testing results.
  
  

Expected Outcomes

• A redesigned user interface that is easier to navigate and more intuitive for users.
• Improved user satisfaction and efficiency in operating the P200.
• A set of design guidelines and recommendations for future interface developments on similar devices.
