Extended reality (XR) technology combines physical reality with computer synthetic virtuality to deliver immersive experience to users. Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) are two subdomains within XR with different immersion levels. Both...
The sit-to-stand (STS) movement is fundamental in daily activities, involving coordinated motion of the lower extremities and trunk, which leads to the generation of joint moments based on joint angles and limb properties. Traditional methods for det...
This study examined the efficacy of an optimized DeepLabCut (DLC) model in motion capture, with a particular focus on the sit-to-stand (STS) movement, which is crucial for assessing the functional capacity in elderly and postoperative patients. This ...
