Virtual Manikins Simulate Human-product Interactions

摘要

Pro/ENGINEER Manikin is intended to make human factors engineering a part of your design process, not an afterthought when the complaints come in. it lets you add a 3D human-like manikin into your model and then simulate the interaction of humans with your product. And not just any human character: big ones, short ones, males, and females, all globalized for local standards. With your manikin, you can check things like, say, your small female manikin's field of vision or reach. You can select your character's posture, and you can send your manikin through a range of movements to see how easy it is to operate a machine or assemble some product.
