Technical Equipment of the Ergonomics Group

  Technical Equipment
  • Portable registration devices for physiological strain analyses and work studies
  • Measuring devices (portable) for the topographic and time series determination of workload resulting from the environment (e.g., psychrometer and steradiometer for climate measurements, dosimeter, sound level meter, and HEAD acoustics measurement system as well as level recorder, and DAT recorder for measuring noise at workplaces and in environmental protection, binaural analysis system)
  • Laboratory devices for standard tests in ergonomics (for example, tests for the sensorimotor, i.e., hand-eye-coordination for learning and aptitude tests as well as tests for the specification of effects of external stress as well as psychotropic agents during work), bicycle ergometry, measuring devices for peripheral-physiological responses such as heart rate, electromyograms, electrooculograms, etc., audiometry, multi-channel movement registration systems

EDP Equipment

  • Computer system HP 9000 and HP 1000 as well as several stationary personal computers for data acquisition, storage, and statistical analysis of ergonomically relevant measuring data of laboratory and field research
  • Portable personal computers for acquisition "under shop floor conditions"
  • Desktop publishing systems for the preparation and graphical presentation of results
