| Abstract: | If families/children are to be sent on space explorations, then a space cabin must be designed to accommodate children. Before designing such a space cabin, research is necessary to define children's capabilities. This project proposes to start the research by gathering certain anthropometric and physiological data of children between the ages of six and eleven. Measurements include: foot length, hand length, tibiale height, trochanteris height, standing height, bideltoid breadth, sitting height, hip breadth, grip strength, motor control, reaction time, functional reach envelope, and visual field. |
