Abstract:
Objective To study pointing movement characteristics and ergonomics when human upper limb touches different targets on the front board. Methods An experiment was designed, in which the data of motion duration, peak velocity, trajectory length and peak power at shoulder and elbow joint were collected. Results By analysis of the experimental results, the pointing movement characteristics among the different regions on the front board were disclosed preliminarily. Conclusion When a right-handed person touches a target on the front board, the pointing movement ergonomics on left-upper region is the best, while that on right-lower region is the worst.
