Biomechanics of the human upper limb for sustainable approach to design smart clothing

Abstract

The creation of smart clothing with universal design solutions, improved ergonomic properties, high performance and strength parameters is a striking example of the implementation of the concept of “slow” fashion. Determining the optimal choice of topographical arrangement of sensory control elements of flexible printed circuit boards and structural and decorative elements of clothing with intelligent functions is one of the key factors in increasing the overall comfort of the designed products. The results of the study of indicators of physiological and psychological characteristics when changing the angle of flexion of the human elbow joint are necessary for understanding the neurophysiological basis of the issues of subjective assessment of the comfort of clothing.
