Objectives
The objective of the IEA technical committee on anthropometry is to improve the understanding and sharing of anthropometry knowledge. We try to achieve this goal through stimulation of high-quality anthropometric research, test and evaluation, development of anthropometric tools and dissemination of knowledge and data.
Structure
The IEA technical committee consists of two co-chairs (see above) and and members who typically also joint the group’s LinkedIn group. The committee will meet a minimum of once every 3 years during each IEA conference.
You can join the IEA Anthropometry TC too if you are interested in anthropometry and a member of a Federated Ergonomics Society. To join, please send an email to kbredenkamp@magicleap.com or to sandra.alemany@ibv.org
You may also join the IEA Technical Committee Anthropometry (international Ergonomics Association) group on LinkedIn. Please send a connection request to kbredenkamp@magicleap.com to join our online discussions.
Goals for 2022/2023
1) For TC chairs to meet at least every 2 months
2) Provide webinars or training sessions on Anthropometry every year
3) Encourage more TC members’ involvement through introducing sub-committees who can contribute to webinars or training sessions in focused areas of interest.
