Ergonomics Evaluation

Ergonomics Evaluation is based on a best-in-class human modeling system, which, for many years, has permitted detailed investigation into human-centered design issues in the context of a workplace before it physically exists. Within the Ergonomics Evaluation app, you may optionally access individually licensed functions: Anthropometry and Posture Analysis.

It includes the following capabilities:

  • Provides accurate simulation of humans and their interactions with products to ensure that they operate naturally in a workplace tailored to their tasks. This also specifically focuses on creating and manipulating digital humans for the first level of human-product interaction analysis.
  • Tools include manikin generation, gender specification (based on the 5th, 50th, and 95th percentile value), percentile specification, direct kinematics and inverse kinematics manipulation techniques, and animation generation. You have the use of output cones, monocular, binocular, and ambinocular for eye simulations.
  • Activity analysis capabilities focus on how humans interact with objects in a working environment. This includes the effects of lifting, lowering, pushing, pulling, and carrying on task performance.
  • Creating the manikins intuitively and manipulate them along with the digital mockup to verify features such as reach and eye sight.

The Ergonomics Evaluation app supports design range management.
