Standard

The instrument is designed and tested in compliance with the following international and national standards:

(1) KSF ISO 12949 – Protective clothing testing methods for chemical and biological agents

(2) ASTM E459-22 – Standard test method for thermal manikins

(3) ISO 12949-2011 – Protective clothing—Manikin-based evaluation

(4) ASTM E457-08 (2020) – Thermal manikin calibration and performance

(5) ASTM D6616-21 – Standard practice for testing full-body protective clothing

(6) BS 10/30207740 DC – UK military protective clothing standard

(7) ASTM E598-08 (2020) – Thermal manikin measurements

(8) ASTM D4683-25 – Evaluating barrier properties of protective fabrics

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.

Test Procedures

(1) Mount the Porton-man on the drive frame in the testing area.

(2) Configure motion parameters (walking, running, sitting, kneeling, stair climbing, arm movements).

(3) Connect the data acquisition system to monitor sensors.

(4) Start the test sequence via the control software.

(5) Perform the desired motion tasks while the manikin collects thermal, pressure, and barrier data.

(6) Analyze recorded data in real-time or post-test for performance evaluation.

(7) Repeat as necessary for different clothing sets or test conditions.

Maintenance Information

(1) Regularly inspect mechanical joints, actuators, and sensors for wear.

(2) Calibrate sensors and data acquisition modules according to manufacturer recommendations.

(3) Clean surfaces and mechanical components using non-corrosive agents.

(4) Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures or moisture that could damage electronics.

(5) Maintain logs of test sequences, calibration, and maintenance activities.

(6) Ensure software updates are applied to control and analysis systems for optimal performance.
