Year 9 learn more about ergonomics and anthropometrics

The Year 9 Product Design started by gathering anthropometric data on each other then analysing a range of chairs to see how comfortable they were.

They then used card to enhance the chairs and make them more ergonomic by adding features like taller back rests, arm rests and cup holders.


Once their analysis was complete, they presented their findings and their improved chairs to the rest of the class.
