Automatic workload measurement system PosCheck

BioNet Lab. Inc. is a Japanese venture company which supplies the automatic workload measurement system, PosCheck-101

Product Features

  • Based on the OWAS method, PosCheck automatically measures the load of work into four action categories three-dimensionally in every seconds.
  • Records action categories, 3D skeletal diagram and measurement results.
  • Measurement data allow you to visualize high-load sites and understand work processes that require improvement.

PosCheck helps prevent back pain and improve the work environment.

PosCheck evaluates stress posture using the OWAS method.

OWAS method is an analysis method for posture measurement developed in Finland.

  • Action Category 1: Normal and natural posture without harmful effects on the musculoskeletal system.
  • Action Category 2: Posture with the possibility of causing harm to the musculoskeletal system.
  • Action Category 3: Posture with harmful effects on the musculoskeletal system.
  • Action Category 4: The load caused by this posture has extremely harmful effects on the musculoskeletal system.

Automatically determines the Action Category of postural load by OWAS method from acquired 2D and 3D images.

  • Using posture classification and evaluation criteria, working posture is judged into four action categories and risk is evaluated.
  • It is used internationally as a standard posture judgment method because it allows for whole-body posture evaluation, does not require special equipment, and has established evaluation criteria.
