Visual Stability for Comfort: The Importance of Vision in Mitigating Whole-Body Vibration Discomfort

Luo Sheng

A visual task was devised to determine the minimum levels of whole-body vibration that affect human vision. This task was the perception of the blur-due to eye motion-of an image of a stationary point source of light and is considered to be as sensitive as any alternative measure of the effects of vibration on visual acuity. Human vibration exposure is a significant concern in various industries, including transportation, construction, and manufacturing. Excessive exposure to whole-body vibrations (WBV) can lead to discomfort, fatigue, and even health issues. While several factors contribute to the perception of vibration comfort, one aspect that often goes unnoticed is the role of vision. This article explores the influence of vision on whole-body human vibration comfort levels and highlights the importance of considering visual cues in mitigating discomfort and improving overall well-being.
