Cognitive Study of Geometric Figure in Man-Machine Interface

Graphic elements is the most likely form to accept in people’s visual perception of man-machine interface, different people will have different cognitive graphics understanding. In this paper, the rectangular cylindrical, triangular prism, cylindrical, conical, spherical geometry as a stimulus, and test the reaction time of the subjects, the misuse rate of indicators above the 5 geometries recognized. The outcome: In terms of “press”, rectangular cylindrical, triangular prism, cylindrical is more sensitive than conical; In terms of “pull”, triangular prism, cylindrical is more sensitive than spherical; In terms of “spin”, cylindrical, spherical is more sensitive than rectangular, triangular prism; In terms of “drag”, rectangular cylindrical, triangular prism-shaped is more sensitive than spherical.
