#IMPACT TYPEFACE PRO#
Devant Pro: Modern Typeface (OTF, TTF, EOT, WOFF) Devant Pro is a stellar sans serif typeface that looks great on and offline. We show that among male drivers, menu selection tasks are completed with 10.6% less visual glance time when text is displayed in a 'humanist' typeface, as compared to a 'square grotesque'.ĭisplay distraction driving legibility typography. With wide, striking characters, Porcine is a worthy alternative to the Impact font. Practitioner Summary: Text-rich in-vehicle interfaces are increasingly common, but the effects of typeface on task performance remain sparsely studied. Future work will need to assess whether other typeface characteristics can be optimised to further reduce demand, improve legibility, increase usability and help meet new governmental distraction guidelines. This research suggests that optimised typefaces may mitigate some interface demands. Error rates for both males and females were 3.1% lower for the humanist typeface. The impact of typeface was either more modest or not apparent for women.

Total response time and number of glances showed similar reductions. Among men, use of the humanist typeface resulted in a 10.6% reduction in total glance time as compared to the square grotesque typeface. Menu text was set either in a 'humanist' or 'square grotesque' typeface. Subjects completed menu selection tasks while in a driving simulator. Text-rich driver-vehicle interfaces are increasingly common in new vehicles, yet the effects of different typeface characteristics on task performance in this brief off-road based glance context remains sparsely examined.
