What is RULA?
RULA (Rapid Upper Limb Assessment) is a widely used observation method that scores the posture of neck, trunk and arms together with force and repetition. The final score runs from 1 to 7: the higher the score, the more urgent the need for change.
Do I need special equipment?
No. A video from a normal smartphone is enough. Film from the side, about 3 metres away, with the whole body in view.
Is it really free?
Yes. There is no charge, no sign-up and no limit on the number of videos.
What happens to my video?
It is deleted after the analysis. No personal data is stored or shared with third parties.
How accurate is it?
The analysis estimates joint angles from a 2D video. It is reliable for a first screening and for comparing tasks, but it does not replace an on-site assessment by an ergonomist. Clear footage from the recommended angle gives the best results.
Do I have to buy an exoskeleton?
No. The analysis is yours to use. If you continue, Ryggo uses the result to recommend the best-fitting exoskeleton, and you decide whether to try one.
