Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reports on the state of the art in physical ergonomics and addresses the design of products, processes, services, and work systems to ensure they are productive, safe, and enjoyable for people to use. The human body’s responses to physical and physiological work demands, strain injuries from repetition, vibration, force, and posture are the most common types of issues examined, along with their design implications. The book explores a wide range of topics in physical ergonomics, including the consequences of repetitive motion, materials handling, workplace safety, the usability of portable devices, design, working postures, and the work environment. Mastering physical ergonomics and safety engineering concepts is fundamental to creating products and systems that people can safely and conveniently use, as well as avoiding stresses and minimizing the risk of accidents. Based on the AHFE 2019 Conference on Physical Ergonomics and Human Factors, held on July 24-28, 2019, in Washington D.C., USA, this book provides readers with a comprehensive perspective on the current challenges in physical ergonomics, which is a critical aspect in the design of any human-centered technological system, and for factors influencing human performance.

Book excerpt: Wearables are all the rage these days. Wearable computing devices have been around way back in the 16th century but began to come into the mainstream only in the last couple of years. There are now more models of fitness trackers or smart watches than types of bread. Most of the wearables currently on sale or in various stages of development are meant for relatively healthy adults while a growing number are dedicated specifically to the elderly, the sick, children, women, moms-to-be, babies and even animals. Several are intended for use by enterprises. Many are in their second or third generations.Some analysts hail wearables as "the largest technological advancement of the century". Apple Watch, Fitbit trackers, Facebook's Oculus Rift virtual reality headset, Bioman T-shirt and the plethora of other wearable gadgets can perform many functions of personal computers. The consumerization of these gadgets holds out the prospect of making lives smarter, healthier and safer. In addition systems of payments made possible by the advent of wearables and pioneered by prominent players like Apple Inc, Microsoft Inc., Jawbone Inc. and financial institutions should make for "reflection" or making lives easier by dispensing with the need to queue at supermarkets.This first comprehensive book on Wearable Technology takes the reader to a fair cross section of leading products in nine industry verticals, which together should cover the entire wearable market. The book also addresses and forecasts the global wearable market in the coming years. Above all, it outlines an action plan for the wearable movement to take off and move on to maturity. At the same time the author is mindful of three overriding pre-conditions - continuing peace in the world at large, continuing worldwide economic prosperity and the absence of disruptive substitutes to wearable products - that can make or break the movement. This book contains 260 pages, over 90 exhibits, and scores of product and company profiles. To reach out to a wider audience, the book is being sold for a fraction of the price of a research report.This book has enjoyed very good reviews by independent reviewers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human body lies at the centre of our relationship to fashion and textiles. Crafting Anatomies explores how the body has become a catalyst for archival research, creative dialogues and hybrid fabrications in fashion design. Focusing on how our response to the corporeal has shifted over time, the book looks at how it is currently influencing design and socio-material practices. With contributions from a multidisciplinary range of scholars and researchers, Crafting Anatomies examines how new technologies have become integrated with traditional fashion and textiles techniques, bringing together art, science and biomedical approaches. Traversing the cutting-edge of design research, the chapters take us from the forgotten lives of historical garments to the potential of biofabrication to cross the boundaries between skin and textile. Illustrated with 120 images visualising original research, the book reveals how the human body continues to inspire future design, from historical wearables to prosthetic limbs and 3D-printed footwear. In doing so, it provides an inspiring account of how fashion and textile culture now impacts socio-creativity and the formation of contemporary identity.

Book excerpt: Looking beyond the impact photographs have on the perpetuation and expression of social norms and stereotypes, and the influence of the act of taking a photograph, this new collection brings together international scholars to examine the camera itself as an actor. Bringing the camera back into view, this volume furthers our understanding of how, and in what ways, imaging technology shapes us, our lives, and the representations out of which we fashion knowledge, base our judgments and ultimately act. Through a broad range of case studies, the authors in this collection make the convincing claim that the camera is much more than a mechanical device brought to life by the photographer. This book will be of interest to scholars in photography, visual culture, anthropology and the history of photography.

Book excerpt: Digital Health: Exploring Use and Integration of Wearables is the first book to show how and why engineering theory is used to solve real-world clinical applications, considering the knowledge and lessons gathered during many international projects. This book provides a pragmatic A to Z guide on the design, deployment and use of wearable technologies for laboratory and remote patient assessment, aligning the shared interests of diverse professions to meet with a common goal of translating engineering theory to modern clinical practice. It offers multidisciplinary experiences to guide engineers where no clinically advice and expertise may be available. Entering the domain of wearables in healthcare is notoriously difficult as projects and ideas often fail to deliver due to the lack of clinical understanding, i.e., what do healthcare professionals and patients really need? This book provides engineers and computer scientists with the clinical guidance to ensure their novel work successfully translates to inform real-world clinical diagnosis, treatment and management. Presents the first guide for wearable technologies in a multidisciplinary and translational manner Helps engineers design real-world applications to help them better understand theory and drive pragmatic clinical solutions Combines the expertise of engineers and clinicians in one go-to guide, accessible to all
