Abstract

In this study, protective clothing for firefighters is analyzed using 4D body scanning and 3D hand scanning, with a focus on the experimental analysis of ergonomic comfort. In particular, German firefighting clothing is examined to discuss the possibilities and limitations of current scanning technologies for capturing firefighting clothing. For this purpose, various movements are recorded in the 4D scanner. In addition, a method for determining position changes of protective clothing at identified limits is presented. The initial results illustrated that the analysis of protective clothing for firefighters using 4D scanning is problematic due to specific materials, reflections, and surface properties. Improvements in the scanning process and optimization of algorithms are required to achieve more detailed and precise results. Concerning the ergonomic comfort related to the mobility under firefighting clothing use conditions, this methodical case study highlights the limits of current approaches, with a focus on the limitations of 4D scanning and potential improvements.

高速 (4D) 人体扫描用于消防员服装流动性分析的潜力和挑战：方法案例研究。

本研究利用 4D 人体扫描和 3D 手部扫描对消防员的防护服进行了分析，重点是人体工程学舒适性的实验分析。特别是对德国消防服进行了研究，以讨论当前扫描技术在捕捉消防服方面的可能性和局限性。为此，4D 扫描仪记录了各种动作。此外，还介绍了一种确定防护服在已识别极限位置变化的方法。初步结果表明，由于特定的材料、反射和表面特性，使用 4D 扫描分析消防员防护服存在问题。需要改进扫描过程和优化算法，以获得更详细、更精确的结果。关于消防服使用条件下与移动相关的人体工学舒适性，本方法案例研究强调了当前方法的局限性，重点是 4D 扫描的局限性和潜在的改进。

期刊介绍： EXCLI Journal publishes original research reports, authoritative reviews and case reports of experimental and clinical sciences. The journal is particularly keen to keep a broad view of science and technology, and therefore welcomes papers which bridge disciplines and may not suit the narrow specialism of other journals. Although the general emphasis is on biological sciences, studies from the following fields are explicitly encouraged (alphabetical order): aging research, behavioral sciences, biochemistry, cell biology, chemistry including analytical chemistry, clinical and preclinical studies, drug development, environmental health, ergonomics, forensic medicine, genetics, hepatology and gastroenterology, immunology, neurosciences, occupational medicine, oncology and cancer research, pharmacology, proteomics, psychiatric research, psychology, systems biology, toxicology
