HADRIAN: 'I am not a number, I am a free man!'
conference contribution
posted on 2017-09-21, 08:23 authored by J. Mark Porter, Russell MarshallRussell Marshall, Ruth Sims, Keith Case, Diane GyiDiane GyiHADRIAN was created to make a step-function change in the way that inclusive design is accepted and integrated within design practice. Tables of percentile data have now been replaced by holistic databases of individuals covering a wide range of sizes and abilities. Whilst the initial research focussed on physical and behavioural issues related to anthropometry and biomechanics, our current research aims to include simple cognitive and emotional data within the tool. Details of HADRIAN are presented, including our ‘journey planner’ that is being developed that will compare an individual’s physical, cognitive and emotional abilities with the demands that will be placed upon that individual during the envisioned journey. If the journey is unachievable or very difficult, then that person is likely to feel socially excluded. Hopefully, the planner will identify a suitable alternative route and/or choice of transport mode. Designers will also be able to use the planner to assess inclusive design issues for existing and new facilities.
