Ergonomics DT Coursework

Archive: 5 posts


Hello for my A level DT coursework i need to take measurements that will be relevant to my project ( I'm making a phone).

So I am looking at making an office phone so I need people ages 20-50 and gender isn't an issue but please include it so i can make sure I'm not getting bias data.

So below is a diagram of measurements I would like. These must be submitted to me in mm and mm^2 where aplicable.

If you don't want people to know these measurements for whatever reason please PM me or you know, just press the back button

So recap:

mm and mm^2 only
ages 20+
male and female

set it out as
1: xmm^2
2: xmm
etc.

1. Area of thumb tip
2. Tip of thumb to base
3. Base of thumb to base of index
4. Tip of index to base
5. Distance between tip of index and middle finger (full stretch)
6. Dip in hand to base of little finger


Thanks all and I will post a picture of my phone when I'm done

Careful lads, we will have the ladies calculating the size of your willies from the size of your thumb!

Back on topic... I must abstain from this as I have freakishly large thumbs and would mess up your average calculations considerably!

Well you've come up with the most plausible idea of why to PM rather than post publically

I knew there would be SOMEONE
