TECHNOLOGIES IN ERGONOMICS. STATE OF THE ART AND BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS

Abstract
In most scientific articles where a state of the art is presented, a bibliometric analysis is not included. Considering that a state of the art aims to present what has been researched in a research field, it is very useful to accompany this study with additional information regarding the main journals where these works are published, as well as who are the main scientists or institutions researching on the topic in question. In the first stage, this research work presents a state of the art describing the most relevant research articles on technologies applied to occupational Ergonomics. In the second stage, a bibliometric analysis is carried out to gather relevant information on the main technologies being applied in occupational Ergonomics, together with the characterization of the main agents involved in this field of research. With regard to the results obtained, it is worth highlighting that the United States is the country where most research is carried out, followed by European countries such as the United Kingdom, Italy, France and Germany. On the other hand, Virtual Reality, digital technology and robotics are some of the technologies with a preponderant role in this area.
