Abstract

Günümüzde hemen
her yaş gurubundan insan bilgisayarların ve bilgisayar destekli sistemlerin
kullanıcısı konumundadır. Hayatımızı kolaylaştıran teknoloji bir yandan da
sağlığımızı tehdit edebilmektedir. Son yıllarda artan bel-boyun ağrıları ve
fıtık, eklemlerde kireçlenme, görme bozuklukları, obezite gibi rahatsızlıkların
başlıca sebeplerinden bir tanesi de yanlış bilgisayar kullanımıdır.  Bilgisayarların yaygın kullanımı da bu
bulguları arttırmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı bilgisayar kullanıcısı bireyleri
ergonomik açıdan daha dikkatli bilgisayar kullanmaya yönlendirmektir. Bu amaçla
geliştirilen kullanıcı ile etkileşimli sistem, bireylerin bilgisayar
kullandıkları süre boyunca ekrana olan uzaklıklarını, ekrana bakış açılarını ve
ekrana bakma süresini takip ederek gerekli durumlarda sesli ya da yazılı ikaz
vermektedir. Bu sistemin, bireyleri ergonomik bilgisayar kullanımına teşvik
ederek bilgisayar kullanım sıklığından kaynaklı sağlık problemlerini azaltacağı
düşünülmektedir.

Designing an Assistant System Encouraging Ergonomic Computer Usage

Abstract

Today, people of
almost every age group are users of computers and computer aided systems.
Technology makes our life easier, but it can also threaten our health. In
recent years, one of the main causes of the proliferation of diseases such as
lower back pain, neck pain or hernia, Arthritis, visual disturbances and
obesity is wrong computer usage. The widespread use of computers also increases
these findings. The purpose of this study is to direct computer users to use
computers more carefully in terms of ergonomics. The user-interactive system
developed for this purpose controls distance of the user to the screen and
calculates the look angle and the time spent looking at the screen and provides
audio or text format warning when necessary. It is thought that this system
will reduce the health problems caused by the frequency of computer usage by
encouraging individuals to use computers ergonomically.
