Abstract:The increased weight of multifunction and intelligent helmet systems can cause an exacerbation of the neck workload. Further, increased weight of the helmet can reduce the wearing comfort, and prolonged use may cause neck fatigue and even neck injury. This study evaluates the fatigue of neck muscles caused by wearing a helmet in motion using electromyography (EMG) measurement. Additionally, a comprehensive evaluation model for neck fatigue was established effectively. Twenty healthy subjects were selected to r… Show more
