Title
Automated ergonomic risk monitoring using body-mounted sensors and machine learning.
Abstract
•Overexertion can cause bodily injury in lift/lower/carry, and push/pull activities.•Machine learning helps recognize activities from body-mounted smartphone data.•In this research, activity duration and frequency are linked to overexertion risk.•Best results are achieved when smartphone is placed on the subject’s upper-arm.•The designed algorithm is validated using leave-one-subject-out cross-validation.
