Experimental Apparatus

Our Laboratory (the Ergonomics Unit) has almost all necessary experimental apparatus for research in ergonomics, biomechanics, applied physiology, etc.
We can measure the following…

  • Physical strain (oxygen uptake*, electromyogram (EMG)*)
  • Physiological responses (blood flow, body temperature, cardiac output, etc.)
  • Motion analysis (real-time 3D motion analyzer including 10 infrared cameras, 3 force plates, magnetic position analyzer, goniometers*, footswitches*)
  • Body composition (3 ultrasound systems , muscle cross-sectional imaging, muscle tightness, bio-impedance)
  • Comfort index (electroencephalogram*, heart rate variability)
  • Body pressure (air-pack method, film sheet method, foot pressure, finger pressure)
  • ETC (visual line movement)

*wireless recoding
