LoginA new type of thermal manikin DRESSMANN (Dummy Representing Suit for Simulation of huMAN heatloss). is presented : it consists of an overall, that can be worn by a person or a manikin, on which up to 32 heated sensors (artificial skins) can be fixed everywhere by velcrose fastening.
DRESSMANN presents the advantages of heated dummies and of small sensors . It can be used in buildings, vehicles, planes or trains.
Thanks to a software, a 3D view of the manikin is established. Its surface is segmented into many areas. The measured values can be visualised on the virtual manikin by coloured areas. Turning and zooming of the manikin and an additional presentation of the previous measurements for comparison is possible.
