Comparison of Microsoft Kinect TM and Observational Gait Analysis in the Assessment of Gait Parameters of Apparently Healthy Adults
Objectives: The Microsoft KinectTM is reported to have compelling potentials for gait analysis in medicine; however, there are few data on its comparison with observational gait analysis (OGA). This study compared the Microsoft KinectTM and the OGA in the assessment of gait parameters of apparently healthy adults. Methods: Ninety-seven apparently healthy young male adults participated in this ...
متن کاملFunctional Movement Screening Tests for the Prediction of Injuries in Volleyball: A Qualitative Study
Background. There is little evidence to support the comprehensiveness of FMS in sports populations to predict injuries. Ignoring rapid decelerations and high eccentric forces which may be characteristics of high risk for injury are evident in these tests. With this in mind, it seems logical to use tests to assess the performance of athletes so as to evaluate speed components as well as to ident...
متن کاملRemote respiratory sensing with an infrared camera using the Kinect TM infrared projector
The need for an inexpensive and portable remote respiratory monitor is in particular demand in a hospital setting as the respiratory rate provides early warning for cardiorespiratory arrest. This paper proposes an inexpensive infrared (IR) camera combined with the Microsoft Kinect TM IR projector as a low-cost module for accurate measurement of respiratory rate. The IR camera utilizes a backgro...
متن کاملThe Prevalence, Zone, and Type of the Meniscus Tear in Patients with Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Injury; Does Delayed ACL Reconstruction Affects the Meniscal Injury?
Background: Meniscus tear is a common finding in patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and may affectthe natural history of the injury and the outcomes of treatment. In the current study, the characteristics of meniscus tearsin patients who underwent arthroscopic ACL reconstruction were investigated.Methods: The hospital records of 1022 patients were reviewed. ...
متن کاملKinect as a Tool for Gait Analysis: Validation of a Real-Time Joint Extraction Algorithm Working in Side View
The Microsoft Kinect sensor has gained attention as a tool for gait analysis for several years. Despite the many advantages the sensor provides, however, the lack of a native capability to extract joints from the side view of a human body still limits the adoption of the device to a number of relevant applications. This paper presents an algorithm to locate and estimate the trajectories of up t...
