Sensor design and new material for an intelligent system for people with musculoskeletal tension problems

Abstract:

The purpose of the current research is the use of new materials and sensors for the Design supports system, reducing efforts for people with problems on musculoskeletal system. The problem also include the damage prevention in back and spine, due for transport of heavy loads on military activities, or activities that include heavy elements transport. The use of special adapted sensor systems allow measuring physiological conditions allow improving results regarding the models used currently (suitcases, backpacks, belts, etc.), allowing focus in the design process, reducing injury rates and the distribution load in accordance with the nature of it. The design process will be addressed by searching of optimization of the cost and improvement of the physical and functional characteristics of the prototype, by making harmless and noninvasive tests on potential end users and taking account of expert opinions, to ensure that the prototype provides protection and support expected.
