Previous studies on overarm throwing have described a proximal-to-distal segmental sequence. The proximal segments reached their maximal linear velocities before the distal ones. In handball, no study has demonstrated this sequence from upper torso to wrist, although recent did present different organization. aim of was analyse arm organization during handball throwing. We found that velocity shoulder occurred after elbow. Moreover, angular later than Hence, contrary other disciplines,...
<title>Abstract</title> This study aimed to propose and apply a validation method for novel three-axis force sensor integrated into cycling pedal. Innovative features of this include being wireless pliancy any bike or ergocycle. A measurement rig was designed compare the outputs with those reference sensor. dynamic protocol, during which tested in five different orientations, performed assess validity new pedal both directions each axis. Data from two sensors were compared using Bland-Altman...
Virtual reality offers new tools for human motion understanding. Several applications have been widely used in teleoperation, military training, driving and flying simulators, so forth. We propose to test if virtual is a valid training tool the game of handball. focused on duel between handball goalkeeper thrower. To this end, we defined pilot experiment divided into two steps: an with real subjects another one throwers. The throwers' motions were captured order animate their avatar center....
Regular and moderate physical activity practice provides many physiological benefits. It reduces the risk of disease outcomes is basis for proper rehabilitation after a severe disease. Aerobic strength exercises are strongly reco
Slowness is a well-recognized feature of movements in aging. One the possible reasons for slowness suggested by previous research production corrective submovements that compensate shortened primary submovement to target. Here, we re-examine this traditional interpretation and argue majority older adults may be consequence rather than cause slowness.Pointing young were recorded. Conditions emergence manipulated using small large targets three movement modes: discrete (required stopping on...
Magneto-inertial measurement units (MIMUs) are a promising way to perform human motion analysis outside the laboratory. To do so, in literature, orientation provided by an MIMU is used deduce body segment orientation. This generally achieved means of Kalman filter that fuses acceleration, angular velocity, and magnetic field measures. A critical point when implementing initialization covariance matrices characterize mismodelling input error from noisy sensors. The present study proposes...
An approach towards head pose estimation is introduced based on Gabor eigenspace modeling. A filter used to enhance information and eliminate other distractive like variable face appearance or changing environmental illumination. We discuss the selection of optimal filter's orientation each pose, which leads more compact clustering. Then we use a distribution-based model (DBPM) cluster in eigenspace. Thus cluster, 2D-distance space established where distance from centroid (DFC) could be...
The squatting birth position is widely used for "natural" or in countries where childbirth occurs non-medical facilities. Squatting positions, like others, are roughly defined so a biomechanical assessment required with the availability of noninvasive technology pregnant women. In practice, we can observe spontaneously two kinds position: on tiptoes and feet flat.To compare impact foot posture parameters considered essential obstetrical biomechanics during versus flat floor.Thirteen women...
