Infrastructure
Our gait lab allows for extensive motion and gait analyses within several domains such as sports, ergonomics, orthopaedics and rehabilitation, and in clinical and pathological research. There is a line-up for motion and gait analysis, in which subjects can be filmed at high speed by 4 high speed cameras from different angles. Dynamic 3D-scanning of the foot is also possible at our gait lab. We have a system to measure contact pressure, e.g. to measure the contact pressure between stump and socket of a prosthesis. End of 2014, we purchased the Diers Formetric 4D, which is used to measure the human back, spine included, optically. Our robotic gait simulator, to conclude with, has been developed specifically to test prostheses or shoes. |
