Vibration exposure is a serious risk within work physiology for several work groups. Combined with cold artic climate, the risk for permanent harm is even higher. Equipment that can monitor the vibration exposure and warn the user when at risk will provide a safer work environment for these work groups. This study evaluates whether data from a wearable wireless multi-parameter sensor module can be used to estimate vibration exposure and exposure time. This work has been focused on the characterization of the response from the accelerometer in the sensor module and the optimal location of the module in the hand-arm configuration.
对于多个工作群体而言,振动暴露在工作生理学中是一项严重风险。再加上寒冷的极地气候,造成永久性伤害的风险更高。能够监测振动暴露并在有风险时向用户发出警告的设备,将为这些工作群体提供更安全的工作环境。本研究评估来自可穿戴无线多参数传感器模块的数据是否可用于估计振动暴露和暴露时间。这项工作主要集中在传感器模块中加速度计响应的特性以及该模块在手臂配置中的最佳位置。
