Abstract

In the evolving realm of ergonomics, there is a growing demand for enhanced comfortability, visibility, and accessibility in the operation of engineering machinery. This study introduces an innovative approach to assess the ergonomics of a driller's cabin by utilizing a digital human. Through the utilization of inertial motion capture sensors, the method enables the operation of a virtual driller animated by real human movements, thereby producing more precise and realistic human-machine interaction data. Additionally, this study develops a simplified model for the human upper limbs, facilitating the calculation of joint forces and torques. An ergonomic analysis platform, encompassing a virtual driller's cabin and a digital human model, is constructed using Unity 3D. This platform enables the quantitative evaluation of comfortability, visibility, and accessibility. Its versatility extends beyond the current scope, offering substantial support for product development and enhancement.
