Enhancing joint torque estimation of the workers using 3D body models

The use of fast and accurate scanning systems for human worker digitization might pave the way towards the development of multiple best practices to be implemented in industry, for enhancing safety and wellness of workers. In this work, an advanced measurement system for human body 3D reconstruction is used for extracting anthropometric characteristics of a worker, which are then used for estimation of joint torques in a simulated lifting task.
