“…Анализ тактильного контроля в современном производстве весьма неполно представлен в научной литературе, так как в настоящее время фокус внимания большинства исследователей сместился на исследование вопросов проектирования интерфейсов в контексте дизайна виртуальной реальности (Colombo et al, 2010), оценки качества продукта конечным потребителем через тактильное ощущение , проектирования тактильных сенсоров в дизайне ручных рабочих инструментов .…”

Актуальность. Проблемы травматизма и динамики работоспособности в условиях производства являются важными характеристиками при анализе эффективности трудовой деятельности, так как их оценка позволяет выявить достоинства и недостатки организации труда предприятий и наметить пути их совершенствования. Однако в существующих концепциях недостаточно полно отражены реальные условия и содержание современных видов и форм труда на производстве. Требуются дополнительные исследования и расширение существующих концепций для включения полученных фактов в практику совершенствования организации труда и повышения его безопасности.цель. Выделение среди условий труда и содержания рабочих задач ключевых факторов, влияющих на безопасность труда.Методы. 1) Анализ случаев травматизма и ошибочных действий работников как ключевых показателей организации труда. 2) Сопоставление данных проведенного аккредитованной организацией независимого аудита по оценке специальных условий труда с результатами предварительного профессиографического наблюдения за выполнением трудовых задач работниками завода, выпускающего штампованные детали кузовов для различных марок автомобилей. Всего проанализировано 209 инцидентов в двух профессиональных группах -операторов по обслуживанию чернышева Ольга Николаевна -кандидат психологических наук, старший научный сотрудник кафедры психологии труда и инженерной психологии ф-та психологии МГУ имени М.В. Ломоносова. AbstractRelevance. Problems of injuries and dynamics of working capacity in the production are important characteristics in the analysis of work efficiency, as their assessment allows to identify the advantages and disadvantages of work organization and to identify ways to improve them. However, the existing theoretical concepts do not adequately reflect the real working conditions and work tasks of modern types and forms of work. Further research and expansion of existing concepts are required to incorporate the present findings into the practice of improving the work organization and occupational safety.Objective. The research aim of the discussed stage was to identify key factors among working conditions and work tasks affecting occupational safety of plant employees.Methods. The design of the study included two directions -1) analysis of occupational injuries/errors as integral indicators of occupational safety, and 2) comparison of data gathered from previously performed legal audit of working conditions with data of real-time observations of work process. In total, 209

“…We can also find researches that integrate DHM either with VR (Virtual Reality) systems (Colombo et al, 2010;Bordegoni et al, 2008) to improve the level of interaction and realism within the virtual environment or with Mocap (Motion Capture) equipment to drive the virtual human and facilitate the evaluation of comfort and prediction of injuries that could rise when executing a task.…”

This paper presents a method, which integrates digital human models (DHM) and virtual prototyping techniques to analyse ergonomic issues of devices to be used by workers. It is based on the comparison between the analysis of AS-IS and TO-BE scenarios with the aim of assessing design concepts, highlighting improvements or worsening and residual deficiencies to be faced. In particular, this paper refers to the case study of display units for groceries or supermarkets. Actually, workers who are in charge of filling the shelves perform highly repeated tasks, potentially dangerous for their health. The AS-IS and TO-BE analysis compares the actual practices with a new scenario in which workers are provided with lifting platforms to load the shelves. The method allows assessing several ergonomics parameters; in this study posture and fatigue are the most relevant. The results achieved with the simulations permitted to propose alternative solutions. Future works in this field concern the standardisation of domain dependant actions virtual human are asked to perform

“…To emulate part of tactile sensations using computer, many haptic devices have been designed for different industrial applications [Colombo et al 2010;Ohnishi et al 2010;Ninu et al 2013 About SMA, the use of a haptic glove should permit to propose a complete framework with innovative interaction and a real haptic feedback of the operations executed in the virtual world. In fact, in the traditional prosthesis manufacturing process the orthopedic technicians rely also on the sense of touch to feel the tonicity of the various areas of the residual limb.…”

This paper concerns a research project that aims at developing an innovative platform to design lower limb prosthesis. The platform is centered on the virtual model of the amputee and is based on a computer-aided and knowledge-guided approach. In particular, the paper focuses on the module, named Socket Modeling Assistant-SMA, conceived to design the socket, the most critical component of the whole prosthesis. The underlining idea is to experiment low-cost devices, such the Leap Motion, to manipulate the 3D virtual model of the socket using hands as traditional done by the prosthetist. The goal is to make available a modeling tool that permits to replicate/emulate manual operations usually performed by the prosthetist during the traditional development process. First, we first describe the traditional socket development process; then the SMA software architecture and the guidelines used to develop the interaction algorithms (integrated within SMA) that exploit the Leap Motion and Falcon devices. Finally preliminary tests and results will be illustrated
