Dynamic control of DHM for ergonomic assessments
Physical risk factors assessment is usually conducted by analysing postures and forces implemented by the operator during a work-task performance. A basic analysis can rely on questionnaires and video analysis, but more accurate comprehensive analysis generally requires complex expensive instrumentation, which may hamper movement task performance. In recent years, it has become possible to stud...
متن کاملErgonomic-Monitoring of Office Workplaces Using Kinect
Prolonged sitting is an aggravating factor in low back and neck pain. Increased use of computers at workplaces could therefore cause health risks. This paper evaluates the application of the Microsoft Kinect in order to investigate the ergonomics at the place of employment. The Kinect is a cheap device and commercially available which enables the user to record 3D data of the human body. Within...
متن کاملPose Estimation with a Kinect for Ergonomic Studies: Evaluation of the Accuracy Using a Virtual Mannequin
Analyzing human poses with a Kinect is a promising method to evaluate potentials risks of musculoskeletal disorders at workstations. In ecological situations, complex 3D poses and constraints imposed by the environment make it difficult to obtain reliable kinematic information. Thus, being able to predict the potential accuracy of the measurement for such complex 3D poses and sensor placements ...
متن کاملUsability of corrected Kinect measurement for ergonomic evaluation in constrained environment
Evaluation of potential risks of musculoskeletal disorders in real workstations is challenging as the environment is cluttered, which makes it difficult to correctly assess the pose of a worker. Being marker-free and calibration-free, Microsoft Kinect is a promising device to assess these poses, but it can deliver unreliable poses especially when occlusions occur. To overcome this problem, we p...
متن کاملA corporate workplace model for ergonomic assessments and improvements.
Several companies have developed their own company-specific models for ergonomic improvements. This study aims to describe and identify factors supporting and hindering the implementation and application of one such corporate model for ergonomic assessment and improvement. The model has been developed by Volvo Car Corporation and implemented at an assembly plant in Göteborg, Sweden. The model i...
