Abstract
Automated collection of human performance data in human/computer interaction studies is not only time and cost efficient, but more reliable and accurate, and less intrusive than manual data collection. In many cases, it allows that measurement of additional dependent variables. In the experiment described in this report, an automated data collection system was successfully used, resulting in time, cost, and data savings. The metering system includes modules which collected the data during the experimental session, and others which reduced the raw data into a usable form. By designing the software in flexible modules, adaptation to later studies has been simple and easy.Keywords
