Abstract

The field of ergonomics is widely used in industry and other fields close to human work. This paper presents an overview about the state of the art in virtual ergonomics with regard to visualization issues. We consider some of the most popular ergonomics tools and their analysis functions like visibility and accessibility of objects or the ergonomic stress of specific extremities. Advantages and disadvantages are discussed with respect to aspects of intuitive and reliable information display.
