효율적 제품설계를 위한 인체자료의 조사 및 분석
Abstract
The objective of this study is to collect and analyze the anthropometric data for Korean adults. These data are intended to be used for the product design in industry. Sixty three college students participated in the measurement. One hundred twenty four lengths, thirty circumferences, four strengths, weight, and age data were collected. Descriptions and statistical analysis of the anthropo- metric data are summarized. The results were compared with foreign data available. It was found that forty weven body dimensions were closely correlated each other. It was also found that three dimensions, stature, eye height, and hand length, can be assessed by adding other body dimensions.
