Human sensory capabilities





      1.      Sight : Human eyes see differently from different

              angles or position. Limit of color vision





      2.      Noise : noise contribute to feelings such as                                              dB            effect

      4.      Vibration and motion: guidelines

              i.      Eliminate vibration (>0.08mm amplitude)


              ii.     Used shock absorbers (spring)

              iii.    Damping material/ cushioned seats

              iv.     Reduce vertical vibration


              v.      Avoid any seating that transmit vibration 3-4                                                                 48
