The AgWearCare project resorts to wearables to collect and digitalize data, supporting agricultural tasks and preventing work-related musculoskeletal disorders.
Reviewed by Lily Ramsey, LLMNov 6 2023 The analysis of the data collected will allow the project's team to know which tasks influence the health of the worker and understand which parcels of land show greater productivity. After the project, the researchers submitted a patent.
The AgWearCare project focused on "well-being" and "productivity" as the two key dimensions in the process of developing a farmers' monitoring system to support their occupational health, as well as the management of crops and human resources. How? By collecting data from INESC TEC's proprietary sensors. The tests were carried out with workers dedicated to three types of crops: vineyards, olive trees and kiwifruit.
"One of the most practical examples is the number of movements that a person performs during certain activities, e.g., pruning or picking the fruit; these indicate the worker's effort and the amount of pruning and picking required for a certain area", explained the researcher.
