Abstract

This paper assesses the impact of smart housekeeping equipment and biomechanical optimization on domestic labor by combining experimental measurements and data modeling methods. The study shows that digital technology significantly improves work efficiency and reduces error rates. Biomechanical optimization reduces muscle burden and spinal load, enhancing posture and comfort. When combined, these approaches further improve task accuracy and physical well-being. Additionally, the trend toward intelligent systems is reshaping the home economics industry, creating both opportunities and challenges for the job market. The findings offer strong data support for intelligent transformation in domestic labor and inform the development of vocational training and policy frameworks.
