Abstract

This European Standard establishes the general requirements for the design and development of computer manikins, body templates and manikin systems. These requirements concern their anthropometric and biomechanical properties, taking into account their usability features and restrictions for structural complexity and functional versatility. The requirements are also intended as a guide for the selection of manikins and manikin systems and for the evaluation of their accuracy and usability for the specified use. In particular, the European Standard specifies the requirements for the documentation of the characteristics of the manikin and manikin system and their intended use, and for guidance to their users. This European Standard provides means for ensuring that computer manikins and body templates for the design of work space are appropriately accurate and reliable in their anthropometric and biomechanical aspects. This European Standard also aims to ensure that the users of manikins are able to choose an appropriate manikin system for their design tasks and use it in an appropriate way. This European Standard sets requirements only on the static accuracy of the manikin, but provides recommendations on the other factors which can influence the accuracy of the analyses and determinations performed with their help. NOTE It is recommended that the result of the investigation of this European Standard be verified by practical tests with test persons. Basic concepts and general ergonomic principles for the design of machinery are dealt with in EN 292-1, EN 292-2 and EN 614-1.
