Porton Thermal Manikin Equipment
Product Introduction:
Porton-man was commissioned by the Defense Science and Technology Laboratory (DSTL) to accurately represent military users. This is a state-of-the-art robotic model designed for the UK Armed Forces to test Chemical and biological (CB) protective clothing and equipment.
The porton-man is computer-controlled, and when connected to its drive frame, it can walk like an infantryman, travel (at 0.5 m/s to 1 m/s), run, sit (at 2 m/s to 3 m/s), kneel, climb stairs and raise its arms as if seeing a weapon. More than 100 sensors throughout the body can record data during testing, allowing scientists to perform real-time analysis.
Standard:
KSFISO 12949, ASTM E459-22, ISO 12949-2011, ASTM E, ASTM D6616-21, BS 10/30207740 DC, ASTM E, ASTM D4683-25
Capabilities and Simulation:
The porton-man is computer-controlled, and when connected to its drive frame, it can walk like an infantryman, travel (at 0.5 m/s to 1 m/s), run, sit (at 2 m/s to 3 m/s), kneel, climb stairs and raise its arms as if seeing a weapon. This range of motion allows the robot to realistically simulate a variety of infantry movements and tasks, including locomotion at different speeds, changes in posture, and actions involving the upper body. This dynamic capability is crucial for evaluating how protective clothing performs during physical exertion and complex movements, which can impact its protective barrier, thermal comfort, and overall wearability.
Data Acquisition and Analysis:
More than 100 sensors throughout the body can record data during testing, allowing scientists to perform real-time analysis. These numerous sensors likely measure various parameters relevant to the performance of the protective gear and the simulated physiological responses of a human wearer. Data such as temperature, humidity, pressure differentials, and potentially mass transfer or agent penetration can be collected in real-time as the robot performs its movements. This extensive data allows for detailed analysis of the protective system's performance under specific, controlled dynamic conditions.
Key Aspects:
Accurate Human Representation: Designed to replicate the physical characteristics and movement patterns of military personnel.
Specialized for CB Gear Testing: Specifically built to evaluate the effectiveness of protective clothing and equipment against chemical and biological agents.
Dynamic Movement Simulation: Capable of performing a wide range of realistic infantry movements.
Extensive Data Collection: Equipped with over 100 sensors for detailed monitoring during tests.
Real-time Analysis: Enables immediate processing and interpretation of collected data.
State-of-the-Art Technology: Represents a high level of robotic and testing technology.
Main characteristics/Parameters:
Type: Computer-controlled robotic mannequin.
Primary Function: Testing Chemical and Biological (CB) protective clothing and equipment.
Movement Capabilities: Walk, travel, run, sit, kneel, climb stairs, raise arms.
Travel Speed: 0.5 m/s to 1 m/s.
Run/Sit Speed: 2 m/s to 3 m/s (Note: Running speed usually exceeds sitting speed; this might be a typo or refer to specific phases).
Sensor Count: More than 100 sensors throughout the body.
Data Recording: Capable of recording data during testing.
Analysis Capability: Allows for real-time analysis of collected data.
