This project is an initiative of Ministry of Human Resource Department under National Mission on Education through ICT. These experiments and labs will be hosted for open access through the main project website
Ergonomics Lab for Assessing Physical Aspects of Design
Introduction to Ergonomics
General Theory, methods and its application.
1.Static anthropometry, standing heights
This experiment focuses on standing height measurement landmarks, reference data pack and animated experiments.
2. Arm forward reaches, standing erect and forward bend
This experiment focuses on comfortable arm reaches, standing erect and forward bending measurement landmarks, reference data pack and animated experiments.
3. Sitting Antropometry, static heights
This experiment focuses on sitting height measurement landmarks, reference data pack and animated experiments.
4. Horizontal work surface at around elbow height
The experiment aims at understanding the various horizontal work surfaces are in effect in our daily life, may be the office table, kitchen platform, console or any interactive work counter and various work component layout there in.
5. Effective work platform height, standing
This study aims at understanding the various work surface heights relevant to normal work platform, table, kitchen platform, or any interactive work counters, with the reference data set in Indian population.
6.Effective vertical work surface
The experiment aims at understanding the various vertical work surfaces are in effect in our daily life, may be the office table, kitchen platform, console or any interactive work counter and various work component layout there in.
7. Hand dimension
This experiment focuses on hand dimension measurement landmarks, reference data pack and animated experiments.
8. Human dimensional consideration for general seating
The experiment focuses on anthropometric considerations for seating.
9. Squatting posture
This experiment focuses on various dimension in squatting postures.
10. Body movement ranges
This experiment focuses on body movement ranges with special emphasis on head, leg, arm and hip.
