In the next decade, machine learning will become increasingly influential in the data analysis of biomechanics. Learn the basics in this article!
Methods
In this article we will give you a rough overview of the applications of electromyography. We will explain what electromyography actually is, what the basic principles are and where, why and of course how it is used. Enjoy your reading and learning!
Phenomena in nature are often complex and are influenced by many different factors. Systematic investigations in form of scientific studies are conducted to understand and describe their interrelationships which lead to their expression. For this purpose, scientists use specific strategies and study designs so that they exclude perturbating factors and arrive at an evidence-based result.
Science is an ongoing process used to investigate phenomena, to acquire new knowledge, or to correct previous knowledge.
In biomechanical research, we often collecting motion capture and force data. The C3D file extension has been established as a standard for further data processing. Here you learn how to visualize them with mocha and manipulate them with the BTK Toolkit in Matlab.
This manual is intended to help you get started with post-processing in Qualisys Track Manager (QTM). We explain the procedure step by step with the help of many screenshots.
If you want to conduct a biomechanical analysis one of the parameters you usually measure is force. In principle, there are two sensor types: Piezoelectric sensors and strain gauges. Although both measure the same physical quantity, they differ fundamentally in their mode of operation. This affects the application areas of both methods.
In view of today’s flood of scientific articles, it is becoming increasingly important to keep track of the current scientific state. Particularly in the case of controversial topics, where the…
Biomechanical investigations – many people think of laboratories equipped with marker-based camera systems from Qualisys or Vicon that can record movements in three dimensions. However, 2D video analysis is often…
In this example, the procedure from the main article on 2D video analysis will be clarified. On the basis of a long jump video we are going to show you…
