DEVELOPMENT OF WHOLE BODY VIBRATION MEASUREMENT SYSTEM USING INTEL CURIE

Abstract

The general reason with this ace proposal is to anchor a superior inclination and maintain a strategic distance from back pain problems in truck drivers with regard to vibration comfort properties amid motor begin, stop and moving in various terrains. Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) are a group of painful disorders of tendons, muscles and nerves. Carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis, and tension neck syndrome. Among business related musculoskeletal problems, low back pain (LBP) is the most common among drivers driving for 8-10 hour daily which is further extended to 10-12 hour sometimes. Lower back is the area regularly influenced because of sitting on the seat for long hours and being subjected to mechanical vibrations coming out of the engine and depending upon the type of road. There has been constrained research to decide the variables influencing WBV. Along these lines, the reason for this examination was to portray WBV exposures amid consistent truck driving (8-12 hours) and decide if there are any factors such as type of truck, road conditions, BMI and operating conditions such as idling condition when the engine is on but truck is not moving and many more, which may influence WBV exposures
