Harnessing Fast Fourier Transform for Rapid Community Travel Distance and Step Estimation in Children with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Accurate estimation of gait characteristics, including step length, step velocity, and travel distance, is critical for assessing mobility in toddlers, children, and teens with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and typically developing (TD) peers. Th...

Amphibious robotic dog: design, paddling gait planning, and experimental characterization.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Mammal-inspired quadruped robots excel in traversing diverse terrestrial terrains but often lack aquatic mobility, limiting their effectiveness in amphibious environments. To address this challenge, an amphibious robotic dog (ARD) was developed, inte...

Marker based and markerless motion capture for equestrian rider kinematic analysis: A comparative study.

Journal of biomechanics
The study hypothesised that a markerless motion capture system can provide kinematic data comparable to a traditional marker-based system for riders mounted on a horse. The objective was to assess the markerless system's accuracy by directly comparin...

A wearable ankle-assisted robot for improving gait function and pattern in stroke patients.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Hemiplegic gait after a stroke can result in a decreased gait speed and asymmetrical gait pattern. Normal gait patterns and speed are typically the ultimate goals of gait function in stroke rehabilitation. The purpose of this study was to...

From marker to markerless: Validating DeepLabCut for 2D sagittal plane gait analysis in adults and newly walking toddlers.

Journal of biomechanics
The use of 3D marker-based motion analysis systems is considered the gold standard for tracking limb movements. However, these systems are expensive, limited to laboratory settings, and difficult to apply when studying paediatric populations. Therefo...

Estimating gait parameters from sEMG signals using machine learning techniques under different power capacity of muscle.

Scientific reports
The gait analysis has been applied in many fields, such as the assessment of falling, force evaluation in sports, and gait disorder detection for neuromuscular diseases. Its main recording techniques include video cameras and wearable sensors. Howeve...

Predicting ground reaction forces and center of pressures from kinematic data in crutch gait based on LSTM.

Medical engineering & physics
Crutches are of extensive applications in the field of rehabilitation. Comprehensively analyzing the ground reaction forces (GRFs) on both crutches and feet can evaluate the patients' walking function recovery. Given more force platforms are needed i...

Interim results of exoskeletal wearable robot for gait recovery in subacute stroke patients.

Scientific reports
Exoskeletons have been proposed for potential clinical use to improve ambulatory function in patients with stroke. The aim of an interim analysis of an international, multicenter, randomized, controlled trial was to investigate the short-term effect ...

Detecting cognitive impairment in cerebrovascular disease using gait, dual tasks, and machine learning.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Cognitive impairment is common after a stroke, but it can often go undetected. In this study, we investigated whether using gait and dual tasks could help detect cognitive impairment after stroke.

Can we use lower extremity joint moments predicted by the artificial intelligence model during walking in patients with cerebral palsy in the clinical gait analysis?

PloS one
Several studies have highlighted the advantages of employing artificial intelligence (AI) models in gait analysis. However, the credibility and practicality of integrating these models into clinical gait routines remain uncertain. This study critical...
