Measurement of lower extremity kinematics during level walking

TL;DR: The relatively small number of body surface markers used in the VICON system render it easy to implement for use in routine clinical gait evaluations and should be a useful reference for describing and comparing pathologic gait patterns.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human movement analysis using stereophotogrammetry. Part 1: theoretical background.

TL;DR: An effort to systematize the different theoretical and experimental approaches to the problems involved and related nomenclatures is needed to facilitate data and knowledge sharing, and to provide renewed momentum for the advancement of human movement analysis.

Adaptive control of a variable-impedance ankle-foot orthosis to assist drop-foot gait

TL;DR: The results indicate that a variable-impedance orthosis may have certain clinical benefits for the treatment of drop-foot gait compared to conventional ankle-foot orthoses having zero or constant stiffness joint behaviors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human motion tracking for rehabilitation - A survey

TL;DR: Recent progress in human movement detection/tracking systems in general, and existing or potential application for stroke rehabilitation in particular are reviewed.

Measurement of gait movements from motion picture film.

TL;DR: A method suited to the study of gait is described in which the walking subject is filmed from the front and from the sides and triangulation techniques are used in obtaining measurements from the films, projected on a special viewer.

Pre- and Postoperative Gait Analysis in Patients with Spastic Diplegia: A Preliminary Report

TL;DR: The benefits of using computerized gait analysis to plan and evaluate operations and examine the changes in estimated external work of walking, stride length, walking velocity, and joint rotations pre- and postoperatively were assessed.
