Ergonomics of human-system interaction — Part 394: Ergonomic requirements for reducing undesirable biomedical effects of visually induced motion sickness during watching electronic images ISO 9241-394:2020

Publication date:   May 4, 2020

Scope

This document establishes the requirements and recommendations for image contents and electronic display systems to reduce visually induced motion sickness (VIMS), while viewing images on electronic displays.
This document is applicable to electronic display systems, including flat panel displays, projectors with a screen, and virtual reality (VR) type of head mounted displays (HMDs), but not including HMDs that present electronic images on/with real-world scenes.
NOTE 1 This document assumes the images are viewed under appropriate defined conditions. See Annex B for the appropriate viewing conditions.
NOTE 2 This document is useful for the design, development, and supply of image contents, as well as electronic displays for reducing VIMS.
NOTE 3 ISO 9241‑392[3] provides guidelines for stereoscopic 3D displays, of which the methods are also used in HMDs.
NOTE 4 The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) generally sets the standards for broadcasting.
