Motionprint Ergo - RULA Module: Validation of Body-Position Variable Extraction

Year: 2026

Type: report

Abstract: This report validates the RULA (Rapid Upper Limb Assessment) module of Motionprint Ergo — ergonomic assessment software developed by Motionprint BV. The validation examines whether body-position variables extracted automatically from Xsens motion capture data (MVNX format) match the values that would be assigned by a trained assessor following the original McAtamney & Corlett (1993) methodology. Results confirm that the automated extraction produces scores consistent with manual assessment, supporting the use of Motionprint Ergo for validated RULA assessments in occupational health and H&S applications.
