Occupational #wearables for monitoring low back load have potential to improve ergonomic assessments & enable personalized, continuous monitoring of overexertion injury risk in the workplace.

We wanted to know: if we can only use a small number of wearable sensors to monitor low back loading, then which sensors should we use, where should we place them, what type of algorithm should we employ, & how accurately can we monitor back loading during material handling?

To address this we synchronously collected data from the #biomechanics lab & from #wearables to analyze 10 individuals each performing 400 different material handling tasks. We explored dozens of candidate solutions that used IMUs on various body locations & pressure insoles.

Thanks for all the great @BiomechanicsDay posts, videos & memories shared this week! Refreshing, energizing & inspiring! @CREATEatVandy & I posted on a few social media sites. Compiling here into #NBD2020 ode to #biomechanics! What biomech is to us...

#Biomechanics is about improving lives. Improving mobility & independence for those w/ disabilities. Preventing injury & sustaining health in others.
We aim to advance understanding of how people move, & translate science/engineering out of the lab.

#Biomechanics is studying human movement and musculoskeletal loading to inform how we design #wearables, #exoskeletons and #exosuits to support and protect manual material handlers and other workers in physically demanding jobs.

@EmilyMatijevich @leonscottmd This is a follow up to our 2019 paper which raised concerns that common GRF, impact, load rate, acceleration & tibial shock metrics are often being misused & misinterpreted in scientific studies & commercial #wearables that seek to track injury risk.

@EmilyMatijevich @leonscottmd Here we share progress on using wearable sensors signals (from IMU + pressure insole), multi-sensor algorithms, physics-based #musculoskeletal modeling & machine learning to more accurately monitor tibial load, & expected bone microdamage due to this loading. #biomechanics
