Human Factors Assessment
Ergonomics (or human factors) is the scientific discipline concerned with understanding the interactions between humans and other elements of a system, and the profession that applies engineering principles and data analysis methods to the design of workstations, products, and systems to optimize human well-being and overall system performance.
Noraxon Human Factors & Ergonomics
Noraxon technology makes it easier to take measurements in real work environments with minimal time, less discomfort, and less expense along the way. This means that Ergonomists can measure the user experience of ergonomic design in everyday work locations and routines, rather than creating a simulation in the lab. Noraxon’s unified software makes it easy for users to integrate various recording devices to fit unique applications such as: testing and researching exoskeletons, training and simulation, health/safety, Takt time reduction, workstation optimization, biomechanics/ergonomics research, quality control, and product design.
Noraxon’s multi-device software includes automated & objective ergonomics tools for standard human factors assessments including:
- NIOSH Lifting Equation
- RULA (Rapid Upper Limb Assessment) Scoring
- REBA (Rapid Entire Body Assessment) Scoring
Suggested Hardware
Using Noraxon’s multi-device software platform, users are able to simultaneously collect multiple types of biomechanical data from various hardware devices. All of the integrated devices are automatically synchronized and the easily accessible data allows for a quick but comprehensive understanding of how the human body is moving and what the contributing factors are. Our unified software makes it easy for users to integrate a variety of recording devices to fit any budget or unique application.
