A STEREOMETRIC SYSTEM FOR MEASURING HUMAN MOTION,

Abstract

The primary objective of the investigation was to develop a system for measuring human motion in three dimensions, utilizing principles and methodology of stereophotogrammetry. The study had two phases. The first included basic theoretical and laboratory investigations of the various parameters which influence the design and construction of a stereometric system. In the second, the system was evaluated during an experimental investigation in which an attempt was made to test its accuracy and adequacy in measuring objects under static and dynamic orientations. In further experimentation, the stereometric system was used to determine the motion characteristics for human subjects under three-dimensional moves. (Author)
