Anthropometrics is the study of the human body and its movement, often involving research into measurements relating to people. It also involves collecting statistics or measurements relevant to the human body, called Anthropometric Data.
Ergonomics is the study of people and their relationship with the environment around them. Ergonomics is the science of making the work environment safer and more comfortable for workers using design and Anthropometric Data
Ergonomics is the application of the anthropometric data. Eg.measurements of the hand are used to design the shape and size of a computer mouse while the size of a person may be applied to designing a chair or the seat of a car.

anthropometrics
1. Palm Down (finger length) 2. Clawed Hand (knuckle length) 3. Hand On Side (Hand depth) 4. Palm Up (Palm Width) 5. Palm Down(finger to finger span) 6. Hand flat pointed closed (Finger Width)
We drew/outlined our hands in different positions and gestures. This gave us a great basic knowledge and understanding of the basics of anthropometric measurements.

group project
In our group project we were required to Draw around each other with a pen and a stick to collect basic information and evidence but simultaneously to create pieces of covid safe group art based around the idea of anthropometrics and the average measurements that should be considered.
The next part of the project was to walk around the Parkside building collecting data and drawing sketches of different positions and movement around the building observing the way people sit and how accurate or not accurate the ergonomics and design of the spaces and equipment are. We collected data of the widths and heights of door ways, heights of ceilings, and hand rails, widths and depths of stairs.
