What is movement analysis?
Movement analysis is a process that films and document the sequence of images to study movements listed in them. Usually uses a camcorder to record movement and computer software to store recorded data for further analysis. Sometimes a person or a model is necessary to wear a type of suit for the body or have some wires attached to different parts of the body to get more precisely. They can also be programmed to distinguish the main object from the background. In this way, when the object moves, the camera and computer software would know how to get rid of unnecessary background images and isolate the moving object itself. In many cases, several cameras are used and placed at different angles to get more accurate feed, or to obtain a three -dimensional (3D) recording of movement. Recorded movements are played with software to create 3D movements simulation.
Many industries and fieldsStudies use movement analysis to further knowledge and research. One of them is the sports industry, especially for the study of human anatomy. Many sports and martial arts such as baseball, football balls and judo have athletes who use their bodies in a way that a normal person could not. Through the analysis of movement of movement, any movement, such as throwing baseball or high kick, will be recorded and studied for athletes to improve their "game". The analysis also provides doctors with information about how injuries start and how they can be better handled.
Hospital and physical therapy centers also use movement analysis to improve the method of treatment and diagnoses. Patients would undergo a number of tests that record all the movements of their muscles and joints. By studying reckormated video, physiotherapists could know the primary cause of injury, and surgeons could decide on the best type of operation. Through the analysis of human movement, doctors can provide a more accurate diagnosis, provide better after Operaor cause fewer victims and medical mistakes.
The production industry also uses movement analysis to ensure that all products correspond to quality and safety standards. Vehicles such as cars and motorcycles are undergoing impact tests for video recordings that would usually include a mannequin with an impact test inside the car. Engineers and designers would then explore the tape to see how the dummy will be influenced by a car accident, thus estimating whether the car is safe enough to use people. Movement analysis is also used in many types of sports devices such as baseball bats and tennis missiles to explore their strength, especially in high impact movements, such as ball beating.
