Scientific research has highlighted a causal link between MSDs and awkward working postures. Several methods for the evaluation of working postures, and related risks, have been developed such as the Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA). Nevertheless, these methods are generally applied with manual measurements on pictures or videos. As a consequence, their applicability could be scarce, and their effectiveness could be limited. The use of wearable sensors to collect kinetic data could facilitate the use of these methods for risk assessment. Nevertheless, the existing system may not be usable in the agricultural and vine sectors because of its cost, robustness and versatility to the various anthropometric characteristics of workers. The aim of this study was to develop a technology capable of collecting accurate data about uncomfortable postures and repetitive movements typical of vine workers. Specific objectives of the project were the development of a low-cost, robust, and wearable device, which could measure data about wrist angles and workers\u2019 hand positions during possible viticultural operations. Furthermore, the project was meant to test its use to evaluate incongruous postures and repetitive movements of workers\u2019 hand positions during pruning operations in vineyard. The developed sensor had 3-axis accelerometers and a gyroscope, and it could monitor the positions of the hand\u2013wrist\u2013forearm musculoskeletal system when moving. When such a sensor was applied to the study of a real case, such as the pruning of a vines, it permitted the evaluation of a simulated sequence of pruning and the quantification of the levels of risk induced by this type of agricultural activity.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s24175703","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,2]],"date-time":"2024-09-02T12:54:42Z","timestamp":1725281682000},"page":"5703","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Preliminary Evaluation of New Wearable Sensors to Study Incongruous Postures Held by Employees in Viticulture"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"Sirio Rossano Secondo","family":"Cividino","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Human Science and Quality of Life Promotion, Universit\u00e0 Telematica San Raffaele Roma, Via di Val Cannuta 247, 00166 Rome, Italy"},{"name":"Lake Research and Study Centre, Via Vittor Pisani 8, 20100 Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8800-1777","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mauro","family":"Zaninelli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Human Science and Quality of Life Promotion, Universit\u00e0 Telematica San Raffaele Roma, Via di Val Cannuta 247, 00166 Rome, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6884-112X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Veronica","family":"Redaelli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Human Science and Quality of Life Promotion, Universit\u00e0 Telematica San Raffaele Roma, Via di Val Cannuta 247, 00166 Rome, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Paolo","family":"Belluco","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"LTW3, Via Caduti di Marcinelle 7, 20134 Milano, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fabiano","family":"Rinaldi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Lake Research and Study Centre, Via Vittor Pisani 8, 20100 Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lena","family":"Avramovic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Lake Research and Study Centre, Via Vittor Pisani 8, 20100 Milan, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0756-3821","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alessio","family":"Cappelli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Human Science and Quality of Life Promotion, Universit\u00e0 Telematica San Raffaele Roma, Via di Val Cannuta 247, 00166 Rome, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"281","DOI":"10.1080\/1059924X.2010.488618","article-title":"Ergonomic Risks and Musculoskeletal Disorders in Production Agriculture: Recommendations for Effective Research to Practice","volume":"15","author":"Kirkhorn","year":"2010","journal-title":"J.
