This study proposes the quantitative evaluation of mental workload for port-coordinator using NO3- included in saliva, which is one of physiological indices. The NO3- is secreted into blood and also blood-borne saliva when a human body receives the mental workload.
So far we have tried a lot of evaluations based on a ship handling simulator; however, we still have not do firsthand experiments on a ship and in navigational environments. This study focuses on Hakata Port which is ideal environment for an experimental scale. We were carried out an experiment for port-coordinators of Hakata Port Radio. We report the results of experiments.
