Abstract

We have done the experiment in JARI using human type robot which simulate the human accidental injury. The precise data of acceleration has been taken from the robot, then HIC has been calculated for the experiment of various conditions. We analyze the HIC of the protectors and conditions. Form the result, It is concluded that the increase of the cart and bicycle is similar. The effect of the helmet is amazing, which reduces HIC by 5903. On the other hand, the effect of the safety cap is not so large, the reduction is 1833 (about one third of helmet). We determine the reduction values of HIC using least square method. This values are valuable to predict or summarize the various effects of the situation.
