A review on enhancing human-machine-environment interface for postura motergo™

In this era of critical traffic congestion,motorcycles have become one of the popular go-to vehicles. recently,there are several motorcycle simulators that was developed by several group researchers around the world due to the statistics of motorcycle road accidents globally alarming. they are developed for 2 different purposes which are as testing on prototype models prior to mass production and also as conducting a study on human skills and behaviour in specific motorcycling conditions. the aim of this study was to review several issues detected with respect to the currently available motorcycle simulators. in addition,a special attention was given to a motorcycle test rig named the postura motergotm. the postura motergotm is a new revolutionary motorcycle test rig which was developed based on riding posture classification (ripoc) system. however,it is noticeable that the current design of postura motergotm could be improved to further elevate users’ experience. other than adding to better fidelity of the motorcycle test rig,further improvements with respect to design,functionality and users’ experience would ensures the design longevity and overall cost effectiveness provided by the particular motorcycle test rig. thus,enables the particular motorcycle test rig to contribute to various motorcycle ergonomics researches in the near future. such matter would then be hope to ultimately aid in reducing the global motorcycle road accident statistics. © 2015 penerbit utm press. all rights reserved.
