Colour is widely utilised as a visual coding system in visual search, but its application under vibration conditions (e.g., in various vehicles) has not been fully explored. This study was designed to examine the effect of colour combinations on performance of visual search tasks conducted in vibration conditions. Forty-eight university students participated in an experiment where they were required to identify target type and location under 24 colour combinations (half in negative polarity and half in positive polarity) and three vibration conditions (static, low, and high). The findings showed that vibration did not significantly affect performance, perceptions, or physiological aspects. Colour combination significantly affected response time, and the participants preferred colour combinations that had the potential to produce better performance. Colour combinations with negative polarity (e.g., yellow on black and white on black) are recommended for presenting search interfaces. These findings are of importance in human–computer interface designs for information display under vibration conditions.

颜色组合在振动环境下视觉搜索任务中的应用

颜色被广泛用作视觉搜索中的视觉编码系统，但其在振动条件下（例如，在各种车辆中）的应用尚未得到充分探索。本研究旨在检查颜色组合对在振动条件下进行的视觉搜索任务性能的影响。48 名大学生参与了一项实验，要求他们在 24 种颜色组合（一半为负极性，一半为正极性）和三种振动条件（静态、低和高）下识别目标类型和位置。研究结果表明，振动并没有显着影响表现、感知或生理方面。颜色组合显着影响响应时间，参与者更喜欢有可能产生更好性能的颜色组合。建议使用具有负极性的颜色组合（例如，黑色上的黄色和黑色上的白色）来呈现搜索界面。这些发现对于振动条件下信息显示的人机界面设计具有重要意义。
