It's really hard to design products by focus groups. A lot of times, people don't know what they want until you show it to them.

Krass, Adam E., Miller, Robert F. and Grynovicki, Jock O. (1990): A Human Factors Evaluation: The Explosive Ordnance Disposal/Automated Information Retrieval and Expert System (EOD/AIRES). In: D., Woods, and E., Roth, (eds.) Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 34th Annual Meeting 1990, Santa Monica, USA. pp. 316-319.

The Explosive Ordnance Disposal/Automated Information Retrieval&Expert System (EOD/AIRES) is a combination of state-of-the art computer hardware and software, developed by the U.S. Army Electronics Technology&Devices Laboratory (ETDL) to assist EOD teams in identifying and rendering safe unexploded ordnance. This study examines the identification time and error rate of using the EOD/AIRES versus using the current method, the TM-60 series manuals. Identification time was significantly reduced using the EOD/AIRES for less-experienced, U.S. Army EOD soldiers. Error rates decreased with the EOD/AIRES, but not by statistically significant amounts. The qualitative results clearly show a preference for the EOD/AIRES.
