Measurement of Human Sitting Posture Dimensions Using Human Pressure Distribution

摘要

The BIOFORCEN pressure distribution test system was used to measure the body's sitting position dimensions which were important for the seating products design, including the sciatic distance, the distance from the edge of the ischial bone to the lateral side of the hip, and the distance from the posterior to the hip to the back of the hip. And at the same time the Martin instrument was used to measure body's basic items which included the body height, weight, sitting hip width, sitting height, hip and hip distance of the subject. The sitting position dimensions were compared with the data of the United Kingdom and the United States. And the correlation of the sitting position dimensions and the basic body items were analyzed and the regression equations were established.
