| dc.description.abstract | A computer model was developed to simulate the steering and gear shifting functions of a tractor. The model was used to test the use of audio and visual operator feedback methods used in machine monitors. Five operators were tested and the audio method was found to have a consistently faster rate of response time for an average operator shift over the visual method. The audio feedback method is recommended to increase monitor effectiveness, operator efficiency, and machine efficiency | en |
