Ergonomics of human-system interaction - Part 303: Requirements for electronic visual displays (ISO 9241-303:2008)
ISO 9241-303:2008 establishes image-quality requirements, as well as providing guidelines, for electronic visual displays. These are given in the form of generic — independent of technology, task and environment — performance specifications and recommendations that will ensure effective and comfortable viewing conditions for users with normal or adjusted‑to‑normal eyesight.
ISO 9241-303:2008 does not address issues of accessibility for people with disabilities. However, it does take into account aspects of the eyesight of older people and could be of value to people dealing with issues of visual impairment in certain cases: the specification of essential characteristics for normal viewing can be used to gauge the severity of different visual abnormalities so that appropriate solutions can be identified.
Ergonomie der Mensch-System-Interaktion - Teil 303: Anforderungen an elektronische optische Anzeigen (ISO 9241-303:2008)
Dieser Teil von ISO 9241 legt Anforderungen an die Bildqualität von elektronischen optischen Anzeigen fest und enthält entsprechende Leitlinien. Diese sind als generelle, von Technologie, Aufgaben und Umgebung unabhängige Leistungsspezifikationen und Empfehlungen festgelegt, um effektive und komfortable Seh-bedingungen für Anwender mit normaler oder auf normal korrigierter Sehschärfe sicherzustellen.
Dieser Teil von ISO 9241 betrifft nicht die Verfügbarkeit für Menschen mit Behinderungen. Sie berücksichtigt aber Aspekte der Sehschärfe älterer Menschen und kann für Menschen von Bedeutung sein, die sich mit Fragen der Sehbehinderung in bestimmten Fällen beschäftigen; die Spezifikation wesentlicher Merkmale der Normalsicht kann zur Beurteilung der Schwere verschiedener Sehanomalien verwendet werden, um geeig-nete Lösungen aufzuzeigen.
ANMERKUNG Darüber hinaus enthalten die Literaturhinweise im Anhang F eine Auswahl einschlägiger Dokumente, die sich mit den Bedürfnissen von Menschen mit Behinderungen einschließlich derjenigen beschäftigen, die ein geringes, sich verschlechterndes oder kein Sehvermögen haben.
Ergonomie de l'interaction homme-système - Partie 303: Exigences relatives aux écrans de visualisation électroniques (ISO 9241-303:2008)
L'ISO 9241-303:2008 établit des exigences de qualité d'image, et donne des lignes directrices, pour les écrans de visualisation électroniques. Ces exigences et lignes directrices sont génériques — elles sont indépendantes de la technologie, de la tâche et de l'environnement. Elles sont énoncées sous forme de spécifications et de recommandations de performance pour garantir des conditions de visualisation efficaces et confortables aux utilisateurs disposant d'une vision normale ou ajustée de manière à être normale.
L'ISO 9241-303:2008 n'aborde pas les questions d'accessibilité des personnes handicapées, mais tient compte des considérations liées à la vue des personnes âgées, et peut être utile pour les personnes qui, dans certains cas, présentent une insuffisance visuelle: la spécification des caractéristiques essentielles de la vision normale peut être utilisée pour évaluer la gravité de différentes anomalies visuelles, afin de pouvoir identifier des solutions appropriées.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 9241-303 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 159, Ergonomics, Subcommittee SC 4,
Ergonomics of human-system interaction.
This first edition of ISO 9241-303, together with ISO 9241-302 and ISO 9241-305, cancels and replaces
ISO 9241-8:1998. Together with ISO 9241-302, ISO 9241-305 and ISO 9241-307, it cancels and replaces
ISO 9241-7:1998 and ISO 13406-2:2001, and partially replaces ISO 9241-3:1992. The following has been
technically revised:
⎯ terms and definitions related to electronic visual displays have been transferred to, and collected in,
ISO 9241-302;
⎯ while the areas previously covered in ISO 9241 and by ISO 13406 remain essentially unchanged, test
methods and requirements have been updated to account for advances in science and technology;
⎯ all generic ergonomic requirements have been incorporated into ISO 9241-303;
⎯ the application of those requirements to different display technologies, application areas and
environmental conditions — including test methods and pass/fail criteria — is specified in ISO 9241-307.
ISO 9241 consists of the following parts, under the general title Ergonomic requirements for office work with
visual display terminals (VDTs):
⎯ Part 1: General introduction
⎯ Part 2: Guidance on task requirements
⎯ Part 4: Keyboard requirements
⎯ Part 5: Workstation layout and postural requirements
⎯ Part 6: Guidance on the work environment
⎯ Part 9: Requirements for non-keyboard input devices
⎯ Part 11: Guidance on usability

⎯ Part 13: User guidance
⎯ Part 14: Menu dialogues
⎯ Part 15: Command dialogues
⎯ Part 16: Direct manipulation dialogues
⎯ Part 17: Form filling dialogues
ISO 9241 also consists of the following parts, under the general title Ergonomics of human-system interaction:
⎯ Part 20: Accessibility guidelines for information/communication technology (ICT) equipment and services
⎯ Part 110: Dialogue principles
⎯ Part 151: Guidance on World Wide Web user interfaces
⎯ Part 171: Guidance on software accessibility
⎯ Part 300: Introduction to electronic visual display requirements
⎯ Part 302: Terminology for electronic visual displays
⎯ Part 303: Requirements for electronic visual displays
⎯ Part 304: User performance test methods for electronic visual displays
⎯ Part 305: Optical laboratory test methods for electronic visual displays
⎯ Part 306: Field assessment methods for electronic visual displays
⎯ Part 307: Analysis and compliance test methods for electronic visual displays
⎯ Part 308: Surface-conduction electron-emitter displays (SED) [Technical Report]
⎯ Part 309: Organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays [Technical Report]
⎯ Part 400: Principles and requirements for physical input devices
