Ergonomic+Considerations

It is important to employ a team of experts to design an educational toy. If this team ignores ergonomic factors, then this can be a problem. Ergonomics is all about collecting measurements and applying them to a design. For an education toy, the design team needs to measure the hands of young children. As a result of ergonomics not being considered, the manufactured educational toy can be too large or too small for its purpose and therefore not suitable for the hands of a young child. The design team should collect a range of measurements and sizes of children’s hands and fingers (known as anthropometrics). They can also measure the body size if necessary. The design and size of the educational toy should be based on these ergonomic measurements. This ensures that it is the correct size for its function and purpose.  // The diagram shows some of the important measurements that need to be collected. //
