10.6 Displaying exertions on the model

Ergoniza Intelligent can use colors on the human model to represent exertion-analysis results for the different joints and body regions. This representation helps quickly locate the regions subject to the greatest biomechanical demand, although its purpose is primarily indicative and it should be interpreted together with the numerical values shown in the result charts and tables.

The display is activated with the Visualization on the Model button, identified by an eye-shaped icon at the bottom of the Exertion panel (Figure 49). When activated, the joints represented on the model change color according to the level reached by the selected quantity.

The model's original color identifies joints whose values are below the Warning level. As a value approaches or reaches that level, the color transitions toward orange. When the Risk level is reached or exceeded, the joint is shown in red. The gradual color transition also indicates proximity to these levels.

The Warning and Risk values depend on the represented indicator. For % Recommended Joint Capacity, % Maximum Recommended Exertion, % Maximum Isometric Capacity Used, and cumulative exertion load, the initial values are 85% for Warning and 100% for Risk. These thresholds can be customized in the Visualization section of the Settings panel. When % Unprotected Population is represented, the action and danger limits established for that procedure are applied; these depend on the sex of the analyzed population and the configuration defined by the user.
