Design of an integrative automotive ergonomics experiment platform

Abstract

Based on the analysis of the importance and research status of ergonomics experiments, an integrative automobile ergonomics experiment platform is established and the relevant experiments are designed. Including actual vehicle and virtual model, the platform is divided into five basic areas: body model and body parameters measure area, automotive human-machine system function test area, automobile interface evaluation area, simulation drive area and virtual design area. Upon that, some important experiments and research on automotive ergonomics can be developed, such as body parameter measure, automotive human-machine system function test, interface evaluation, human-machine system simulation, and so on.
