Abstract

This paper presents a concept for a universal tram driver console that has been developed based on research results regarding the review of tram control panels. These efforts were carried out as part of the project “Innovative training system for tram drivers, based on a full-cab simulator with the application of cognitive science” POIR.01.01.01-00-0135/22, with funding from the Smart Growth Operational Programme. This project involves the development of a tram driver training system based on a full-cabin tram simulator mounted on a motion platform, integrated with eye-tracking technologies and skin conductance response analysis for tram drivers’ assessment. The presented research results regarding the development of a universal control panel structure for a tram simulator have led to the creation of a panel based on interchangeable panels. The arrangement of individual switches was determined based on the identification, selection, critical evaluation, and analysis of data from current solutions.
