In this study, an integrated 3D point-cloud and 2D image-based approach for generating individualized female prototype patterns was proposed, and an automatic pattern generation system based on body height, weight, and images was developed. A feature point recognition method was used to measure 14 body parameters, including the width, thickness, and angles at characteristic body landmarks. Multiple linear regressions between these parameters and the coordinates of 20 pattern measurement points were then performed. For the extracted 2D body parameters, the error for more than 80 % of the samples were within 1 cm by comparing with the 3D measurement data. Moreover, the predicted accuracy of the generated individual patterns reaches 91 % overall, demonstrating the reliability of this system. Therefore, this method can improve the efficacy of automatic garment production, and meet the growing requirements of sustainable development and individualized consumption.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50317,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics","volume":"107 ","pages":"Article 103748"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143898788","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Kinematic analysis showed that obese participants flexed their hips less and had a greater center of mass displacement than non-obese participants. Female participants exhibited lower spinal loads and greater hip flexion compared to males. Notably, all obese participants exceeded the safety limits at a lifting index of 1, compared to 70 % of overweight and normal-weight participants who also surpassed these limits.

However, due to cognitive and limb motor decline, the current gestures in XR remain challenging for the elderly. The aim of this study is to establish a set of interaction gestures for the elderly that can be widely used in the XR environment. The study was divided into two phases, combining cognitive and electromyographic (EMG) experiments. During the cognitive experiment, we focused on 8 common XR commands and collected 24 gestures to compare the differences in gesture cognition between elderly and young people. During EMG experiments, we screened out the gestures with lower muscle load, proposed an optimal set of aging-adapted gestures and specify the corresponding interaction guidelines.

This included orienting the pelvis more towards the lifting direction, especially with increasing task asymmetry. The findings suggest that the tested BSE can provide meaningful support during asymmetric tasks, along its one actuated degree of freedom.
