Abstract:
The paper presents the review of the existing tools and techniques for ergonomic design. These tools are used for checking the ergonomic adequateness of the product, which product has to be designed and modelled before ergonomic analysis. Considering the results of the ergonomic analysis, the model should be redesigned, using designer’s knowledge and experience to fix the ergonomic imperfection. Aesthetics is also very important factor when designing new products. Yet, the aesthetic part of design is very subjective, without any computer support of practical value. Therefore, a development of an intelligent computer system for supporting ergonomic and aesthetic design that is proposed in the paper has a great potential.
