ErgoIQ

Pioneering a New Era in Ergonomic Risk Assessment

ErgoIQ represents the cutting edge of VisEyeQ’s commitment to revolutionizing workplace safety. In collaboration with partner universities, government agencies, and leading research institutes, ErgoIQ is undergoing rigorous research and development to address the significant prevalence and impact of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs).

With over 122 WMSD cases reported in Singapore in the first half of 2024, affecting approximately 7 in every 100,000 workers, WMSDs are a critical concern. Globally, indirect and direct costs stemming from these injuries account for billions of dollars annually, underscoring the urgent need for innovative solutions.

The economic impact of WMSDs is staggering. In Singapore alone, strenuous movements and overexertion rank among the top four causes of minor injuries, contributing to the 10,379 minor injuries reported in the first half of 2024. With an annualized rate of 568 injuries per 100,000 workers, the potential for cost savings is immense.

OSHA estimates show that indirect costs can exceed direct costs by 4.5 times for minor injuries under $2,999. This includes costs like lost productivity, overtime, administrative tasks, and training replacements. ErgoIQ mitigates these expenses by providing proactive risk assessments that help prevent injuries before they happen.

For example:

  • Direct cost of a minor WMSD injury: $5,000
  • Indirect cost multiplier: 1.2
  • Total estimated cost: $11,000

ErgoIQ’s advanced predictive capabilities can help companies save thousands per incident by preventing injuries altogether, ensuring safer workplaces and more sustainable operations.

2D Risk Assessment

The initial stage leverages existing 2D computer vision techniques like OpenPose, a tool many competitors utilize to assess static body postures based on frameworks like RULA and REBA. These traditional methods, while effective in basic assessments, often fall short in addressing dynamic workplace environments and fail to account for force, velocity, and acceleration in their scoring.

Advancing 2D Risk Analysis

ErgoIQ goes beyond the basics by integrating temporal angular assessments and multi-data-point fusion. This includes leveraging VisWatchIQ wearables to capture key variables such as force, speed, and acceleration. These variables, combined with detailed posture tracking over time, provide more accurate and actionable insights. This approach highlights deviations from ergonomic standards dynamically, allowing safety managers to mitigate risks before injuries occur.

Proprietary 3D Assessment Framework

The final stage of ErgoIQ’s development is a 3D Kinetic Ergonomic Risk Assessment (KERA) framework. This proprietary technique integrates insights from traditional frameworks like RULA, REBA, NIOSH, and RSI while adding a layer of depth through advanced 3D modeling. With KERA, ErgoIQ assesses joint angles, force distribution, and repetitive strain across multiple planes, delivering unparalleled accuracy in predicting and preventing WMSDs.

Patenting this framework will establish ErgoIQ as the definitive standard in ergonomic risk assessment.
