摘要: Abstract Mutual adaptation and interchangeability of system elements are indispensible prerequisites for technical products. Similar to that compatibility, optimum design a man—machine-system cannot be achieved without e.g. compatible arrangement connected displays controls. Over above those stimulus/ response relations, all components interfaces have designed in such way they meet the capabilities human beings order ensure efficiency work exclude undesired impacts on being. Compatibility between properties organism one hand adaptable other offers great potential preventive measures. Examples ergonomically working tools show compatibility is capable reducing prevalence occupational diseases repetitive strain injuries as well leading lower physiological cost same output results from demand resources, or even higher performance will attained. also supports quick perception transmission information man—machine-system, result requirements decoding during processing, spare mental capacity may enhance safety. In field software, helps avoid psychological frustration.
