A work comfort evaluating device is a device for evaluating a level of
comfort of work by measuring myoelectric potentials of plural muscles
when the work is done by antagonistic activities of the muscles. The
device has a pair of detecting sensors, an amplifier, a signal processing
part, a work-load intensity calculating part, and an evaluation part. The
sensors sense myoelectric potentials of the muscles at a time of the
work. The signal processing part calculates a synchronous contraction
intensity of the muscles by using myoelectric potential waveforms. The
work-load intensity calculating part calculates a level of a work load
intensity in the work. The evaluation part evaluates a level of comfort
of the work by normalizing the synchronous contraction intensity by the
level of the work load intensity calculated.
