Training Caregivers to Use Safer Patterns of Movement With PostureCoach
október 29. 18:00 (magyar idő szerint)
A series of recent systematic reviews have argued that current approaches for injury prevention training are not effective at reducing injury risk. This webinar will introduce research on the use of biofeedback from a wearable device called PostureCoach to shift caregivers to using safer patterns of movement. PostureCoach is designed to provide a gentle vibration to warn the user when it detects they have flexed their lumbar spine too far.
This webinar may be of interest to anyone in any sector who is curious about the use of biofeedback devices for improving movement patterns while performing work to reduce the risk of injury.

Webinar – Visual Ergonomics: Lighting Design and MSD Prevention
Indoor lighting can have a huge impact on our health and performance. A wrong type of luminaire placed incorrectly can cause glare that in turn contributes to eyestrain, headache, migraine, and musculoskeletal strain. Research has demonstrated that there is a correlation between an incorrect visual working environment and headache, eye strain and musculoskeletal strain, as well as between eye strain and musculoskeletal strain.
This webinar will address glare, non-visual flicker (or TLM), and other factors in the visual environment that can contribute to problems. A Visual Ergonomics Risk Assessment Method (VERAM) developed to identify risk factors in the visual working environment will be reviewed along with strategies that have improved worker health.
AI and Markerless Motion Capture for Ergonomic Assessments
január 27. 18:00 (magyar idő szerint)
Many recent advancements in markerless motion capture and computer vision technology have quickly changed how we can conduct musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) risk assessments in the field, with various computer vision-based MSD risk assessment tools quickly emerging in the market. However, there has been limited guidance for practitioners, ergonomists, or companies on how to best implement these computer vision-based technologies in the workplace.
This webinar will present an overview of a recent study conducted to understand how joint angle data outputs may be influenced by angle of video recording, task characteristics (i.e., sagittal/multi-planar, fast/slow pace), and/or computer vision models. Insights gained from completing this work and some best practice guidance for implementing these computer vision-based MSD risk assessment technologies in your workplace will be shared.
