Anthropometry

i think this must be the 1st documented data relevant to anthropometry. anthropometry is coined from two latin words antropos meanings 'men' and metron meanings 'measure'. Da Vinci's petruvian man has been made famous recently by Dan Brown in his book entitled Da Vinci's code. A good read and understanding of what has been happening behind the establishment of protestant and its rivalry chatolics, in the new era after Jesus has been lifted to heaven although the Christians wrongly believed Jesus had been cruxified. Astaghfirullahalazim.

This is a modern figures depicting measures in standing postures suggested by Pheasant. Not just postures but also special body parts, most popular is the hand for tool and material handling and many works that being done using hands.



More advance is measurement taken using 3D opto-electric system...

anyway..what the fuss with this anthropometry...it may be a part of my research...as we are very lacking in anthropometry data let alone driver's anthropometry...so that's the basic...Dr. Reed and friends has been doing many reserches in that area and yes...they definitely in my list of reference!!!

All the best to me.

I think from now on i will blog on another page for my personal life notes and this will be the academia one.
