Maher, Michael (1988): A Militarized System with Complete Control Exercised Without Hardware Switches. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 32nd Annual Meeting 1988. pp. 1085-1089.

This paper describes the Man-Machine Interface for a militarized radar system. The interface strives to achieve high reliability in terms of both hardware and operator performance, and allows a single operator the ability to control all aspects of the radar system. To accomplish this, a computer controlled touch input design has been assembled, is being tested, and can be fielded in the early 1990's. Reduction in operator fatigue and increases in operator proficiency are combined with the capabilities to minimize required training time and money, provide a system capable of cost effective updates and growth along with the ability for rapid, real time reconfiguration due to failed electronics or changing battlefield conditions.
