Overview

Walking gait analysis evaluates the biomechanics of walking motion, including stride patterns, ground contact phases, and joint kinematics during the walking cycle. Example image of a man doing a gait walking

Dimensions

Required Inputs for processing:
  • surface: the type of ground on which the person walks [‘treadmill’, ‘other’]

Instructions

Walk at a comfortable, natural pace on a flat surface or treadmill. Maintain normal walking form without consciously altering your gait. Multiple consecutive strides will be captured and analyzed.

Variables

Output Variables for gait analysis:

Generic Outputs

Every capture includes session metadata, standard joint angle/velocity time series, and 3D keypoint positions common to all movements. See Generic Outputs for the full list.

Notes

  • Kinematic data typically captured at 120Hz for Walking Analysis
