The proliferation of higher quality connected sensors is consistently increasing the amount of information available to operators, increasing the complexity of displayed information. Coupling this increase in information with larger, higher addressability displays may lead to increasingly complex visual search paradigms. The current research explored the effect of both display size and distractor symbol complexity on visual search efficiency across three different symbol set sizes. Overall, the results indicate a reduction in search efficiency as a function of both increased display size and distractor complexity, even for the high target densities employed within this study. Further, these variables can interact in target present conditions to influence search times.

更高质量的连接传感器的普及不断增加了操作员可用的信息量，增加了显示信息的复杂性。信息的这种增加与更大，更高可寻址性的显示相结合，可能会导致日益复杂的视觉搜索范例。当前的研究探索了显示大小和干扰项符号复杂度对三种不同符号集大小的视觉搜索效率的影响。总体而言，结果表明，即使对于本研究中采用的高目标密度，搜索效率的降低也取决于显示尺寸的增加和干扰因素的复杂性。此外，这些变量可以在目标当前条件下相互作用以影响搜索时间。
