Simultaneous measurements of posture and movements of head and trunk by continuous three-dimensional registration / M.P.J.M. van Riel... [et al.]

Sumario: The postures of three groups of employees were measured: straddle carrier drivers, crane operators and office employees. This type of sedentary work can be characterized as being highly static. Using a continuous three-dimensional registration device, the postures and movements of head and trunk were recorded simultaneously. The results show that the adopted postures and patterns of movement were predominantly imposed by the workplace
