Integrating Human-Centric Principles into Machine Design: Ergonomic and Safety Enhancements in Mechanical Systems
Abstract: The integration of human-centric design (HCD) principles into mechanical systems has become increasingly critical in contemporary machine design. As machines become more complex and operate within high-interaction environments, the need for design strategies that prioritize human safety, usability, and comfort has intensified. This review explores how ergonomic insights, safety standards, and user experience (UX) considerations influence the physical configuration, control mechanisms, and operational safety of mechanical systems across industrial, healthcare, …
