Quickly identify harmful postures and high-load movements during work through visualization of the load!
"VP-Ergono" is an ergonomic evaluation system that analyzes and assesses the load on the body based on skeletal information of individuals. The automatic analysis using AI calculates quantitative data, and the only required equipment is a PC and a web camera. The results obtained output two types of analysis: the "OWAS method evaluation" for the production and manufacturing industry, and the "moment evaluation" which measures load values at the level of body parts. ■ The OWAS method evaluation calculates the work posture using AC values and displays the transition of AC values in a graph. It analyzes and displays how harmful the work posture is based on a four-level evaluation according to the improvement requirement of the "OWAS method" (AC value), supporting improvements in the work environment. It detects harmful postures from momentary tasks that impose very high loads and from the postures of routine tasks that are often overlooked. ■ The moment evaluation quantifies the load values of each body part and displays them in a graph. Since measurements can be taken at the level of body parts, it allows for confirmation of the burden on one knee due to the tilt of the body, visualized in a graph that quantifies the load on ten different parts of the body. Detailed numerical data can be utilized for various posture analyses, from manufacturing and construction industries to sports analysis and rehabilitation exercises, enabling the visualization of movements to be analyzed over time.

Benefits of OWAS Method Evaluation The work posture is analyzed and displayed in a four-level evaluation based on the improvement requirement level (AC value) of the "OWAS method," supporting the improvement of the work environment.
-
■About OWAS Method Evaluation The OWAS method is an analysis technique for posture measurement developed in Finland to address issues related to working postures. It can be used to evaluate the overall workload of workers, and since evaluation criteria are well established, it is utilized as a major international system. However, there were issues when evaluating, such as: - Classification by human hands takes time and effort - Results can vary depending on the evaluator's know-how and intuition To address these problems, VP-Ergono has implemented AI to automatically analyze the workload of workers from camera footage, resolving these issues through quantitative automatic evaluation.
-
■Benefits of Moment Evaluation Since it can be measured on a part-by-part basis, for example, the load on one knee due to body tilt can be confirmed through quantified graphs. Detailed numerical data can be utilized in various posture analyses, from manufacturing and construction to sports analysis and rehabilitation exercises.
-
■Usage scenarios in the construction industry It is an industry with a high incidence of low back pain at 14%, and to detect health issues early, we utilize VP-Ergono's work posture analysis.
-
■Usage Scenarios in Manufacturing Industry The analysis results of work posture are utilized for improving the work environment from an ergonomic perspective, thereby protecting the health of workers.
-
■Usage Scenarios in the Logistics Industry Even in scenes we encounter regularly, there are postures that place a high burden on the body when analyzed. By improving these, there are benefits such as the retention of experienced workers due to an improved workplace environment.
-
■Usage Scenarios in Sports By reading the skeletal information of the form and quantifying the load on each part, it is possible to lead to form improvements that reduce strain.
-
■Usage Scenarios in Training Even in scenes where high loads are effective, the moment evaluation of VP-Ergono is helpful. By identifying high-risk movements, it helps prevent health issues.
-
■Usage Scenarios in Medical and Rehabilitation Settings It can be utilized for optimal rehabilitation proposals and support for elderly exercise. By quantifying exercise, it is possible to ensure safety and maximize effectiveness.
