Description
The analysis of human movements, gathering quantitative information about the musculoskeletal system during the execution of a motor task, plays a fundamental role for the understanding of the system physiopathology. Current methods for capturing accurate 3D human motion require the attachment of devices like markers, fixtures or sensors, that may influence the execution of natural movements, require time for subject preparation, and must occur in laboratory environment.
