The research question
Is military equipment, load carriage or task technique creating avoidable biomechanical strain or muscular fatigue?
Military ErgoMetrics is the military counterpart of ErgoMetrics. It measures posture, movement, physical effort, muscular load and fatigue during real, training or simulated tasks such as load carriage, marching, equipment / weapon handling, driving and maintenance.

How this study is executed.
The protocol below reflects the service definition developed for Neuro Garage. Final details are confirmed before execution.
Define the task, equipment configuration, load and biomechanical question.
Instrument participants with EMG and IMU during the real, training or simulated task.
Synchronize muscle activity, posture and movement with the task timeline.
Identify compensations, muscular overload, accumulated fatigue and biomechanical risk.
Compare equipment configurations when required and translate the evidence into ergonomic, equipment and technique recommendations.
