Abstract
In the automotive industries, establishment of the car interior design is one of the important phases where the consideration of ergonomics aspect defined in order to give maximum comfortably, performance, and satisfaction for the occupants which fulfil the market requirement. This project basically focuses on the ergonomic car dashboard research by doing an analysis on the dashboard design and its instrument. Base on the previous research, there have difficulties for the driver to reach the instrument panel at dashboard. This situation also tends to give the stresses upon the drivers’ body. Realizing the situation, ergonomics was carried out as a practice and disciplines among designers in generating a dedicated product. Three benchmarks were chosen to get its basic information as well as the parameter of the dashboard. Besides that, anthropometric data of the driver were collected base on their percentile. Measuring activities also done to get real data on the existing car dashboard. Yet, the reach capability of the drivers to their car dashboard can be examined. In order to develop a car dashboard design which fulfils the customer requirements, a survey has been conducted as additional information. The data which is collected from the survey and the real time measurement, will be used to construct a digital Computer Aided Design (CAD) data. Then, the CAD data will be used as a reference to generate a new concept design of the car dashboard. An analysis will be run on the new design of car dashboard and instrument panel to evaluate the ergonomics aspect using Computer Aided Three-dimensional Interactive Application software (CATIA V5R16). The output data was compiled, validated and compared among the resource gained. An ergonomic design concept of car dashboard will proposed as a result at the end of this project.
