САЖЕТАК / ABSTRACT:
The driver position and posture during long activity hours can become a problem affecting overall health for speciffic activities relative to different jobs connected with driver applications. Current methods approach this aspect relative to obtaining results in different scenarios with applications on optimisation for driver posturality and overall short and long term benefits through added value of driver seat, activity and overall comfort. In this regard, the current paper aims to determine initial methods of analysis for driver posture in order to better determine solutions for optimising the overall ergonomic and confort aspects for drivers during long hour schedule.
