Exhibit Title: Does technology work for everyone?

Users will compare between two computer paint applications (MS Paint and Adobe) and by drawing manually. After drawing, they have to “email” their images to us. The fastest user to do this wins!! At the end, pros and cons of each of these applications will be discussed to understand using the right technology for the right usage.

Virginia Tech Human Factors and Ergonomics Society Student Chapter
The Human Factors and Ergonomics Society’s (HFES) mission is to promote the discovery and exchange of knowledge concerning the characteristics of human beings that are applicable to the design of systems and devices of all kinds.

The Virginia Tech HFES student chapter has historically been one of the largest and most active student chapters of national HFES. The chapter has a diverse group of undergraduate, graduate, and post-doctoral researchers from the Grado Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISE). As such, they make efforts to tailor our programs and events to represent a variety of research interests within the broad scope of human factors and ergonomics.
