ABSTRACT
Reaction time monitoring is currently routine in medicine and psychological practice. Monitoring of human reflexes concerning rapidly changing external visual stimuli in means of transport is one of the basic research activities in transportation sciences. These activities allow transfer of knowledge and innovations into practice. Human factors, especially in the aviation, can lead to significant fatalities. Selection of suitable candidates to perform such psychologically demanding occupation requires utilization of new testing tools and procedures. The basic idea to develop a device to measure reaction time was to offer suitable tool to physicians and research workers to explore human sensomotorics. The paper describes development of a new device to measure reaction time.
