Objective
The goal is to improve repeatability and reproducibility of vibration tests carried out on hand-held power tools by means of arrays of polymeric capacitive pressure sensors used to map contact force and pressure.
Scientific and technological objectives are:
a) to develop sensors to measure grip and push force and contact pressure distribution for hand-held tools in the form of- matrices to be wrapped on the handle, - instrumented gloves;
b) to perform a thorough metrologic analysis of their performance static and dynamic characteristics;
c) to perform tests on different types of hand-held tools according to existing norms and with the monitoring of grip force, correlation analysis aimed to verify if dispersion of results can be reduced by monitoring and controlling grip force during tests;
d) to evaluate results for standardization purposes;
e) to explore possible application of these sensors for ergonomic and medical studies.
