This quantity set (LNCS 8025-8026) constitutes the refereed court cases of the Fourth overseas convention on electronic Human Modeling and functions in healthiness, security, Ergonomics and hazard administration, previously overseas convention on electronic Human Modeling, DHM 2013, held as a part of the fifteenth foreign convention on Human-Computer interplay, HCII 2013, held in Las Vegas, united states in July 2013, together with 12 different thematically comparable meetings. the entire of 1666 papers and 303 posters provided on the HCII 2013 meetings was once conscientiously reviewed and chosen from 5210 submissions. those papers handle the newest examine and improvement efforts and spotlight the human elements of layout and use of computing structures. The papers authorised for presentation completely hide the full box of Human-Computer interplay, addressing significant advances in wisdom and potent use of desktops in a number of software components. This two-volume set comprises ninety one papers. The papers during this quantity specialise in the next themes: electronic human modeling and ergonomics in operating environments; ergonomics of labor with pcs; anthropometry, posture and movement modeling.

Keywords: parameters. 1 Anthropomorphic movements, industrial robot, movement Introduction To meet the increasing challenges in regard to production in high-wage countries, one of the approaches has been to automate assembly tasks using industrial robots. In today’s production plants – in an increasing number of scenarios – these robots interact with human operators in cooperative environments. As the requirements regarding productivity increase, the naïve approach is to increase automation as well.

For example, without smoothing enabled the trajectory of the robot is almost exactly the same as the humans. In regard to speed, however, there is little to no correlation between the two movements, since the robot stops at every intermediate point of the trajectory. Towards Anthropomorphic Movements for Industrial Robots 15 In the adaptation process the optimization is performed for those parameter combinations that fulfill the requirements regarding the timespan tolerance of the robotic movement.

1 also provides the mode value, which represents the most comfortable angle. If the output is between the two limits, the posture is within the comfortable zone; if not, the posture is uncomfortable. The closer the output to the mode value for a specific joint, the more comfortable the posture associated with that posture. As shown in Fig. 7, the trunk thigh and knee are outside the comfort range. Fig. 7 also shows that the upper arm flexion and elbow included are in the comfort range. While the upper body experiences higher flexion angle that is near the comfort range’s limit, the trunk thigh and elbow included are outside the comfort range.
