Joint Angle Calculations Using Motion Capture And Deep Learning Pose Estimation While Running, Luke Vankeersbilck, Isaac Hedengren, Mcgyver Clark, Iain Hunter
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
Marker based motion capture is currently the most accurate method of measuring human kinematics; however, it is expensive and is often limited to lab environments making it unsuitable for many applications. Two-dimensional methods are available through open source code, but it is unclear which of these methods provides the greatest accuracy. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to quantify the accuracy of pose estimation from a monocular electro-optical sensor with deep learning to infer segment end points and pose estimation utilizing two open-source code approaches. METHODS: One subject ran at 6.5 m/s for 15 s while being …

Make Reading Fun: Implications Of Virtual Reality On Standing Balance And Control, Makena Savola, Belle Ponce De Leon, Amanda Duben, Wendy T. Pham, Joshua Vicente, Jacob Hinkel-Lipsker
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
The recent rapid expansion of virtual reality (VR) technology is driving a widespread number of new applications, including providing immersive environments for users to learn and read through commercially-available applications. However, recent research has shown that VR causes symptoms of dizziness and motion sickness, which could disrupt users gait and balance. Thus, it is important to understand how to best mitigate these effects before VR use becomes more widespread across the lay public. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine the acute effect of VR use on gait and balance control following use, and whether aspects of virtual …

The Relationship Between Concussion History And Lower Extremity Biomechanics During A Land And Cut Task, Nghi Gia Vu, Warren Forbes, Jason M. Avedesian, Janet S. Dufek
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
In high impact landing tasks, athletes with a history of sports related concussion (SRC) have been found to demonstrate lower extremity (LE) biomechanics that are associated with elevated injury risk. However, the exact relationships between SRC history and LE biomechanics are inconclusive. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between SRC history and LE biomechanics during a cutting task. METHODS: A cohort of athletes with a history of SRC (n=20) and a control group of healthy athletes (n=20) were recruited for this study. The control group were matched by age, sex, and sport. Athletes …
Just Bust A Move; Relating Subjective Evaluation To Objective Measurements In Hip – Hop Dance, Joshua A. Vicente, Belle P. Ponce De Leon, Makena Savola, Rabbani Nzeza, Summer Diaz, Wendy Pham, Thomas (Rex) Ruswick, Dr. Jacob Hinkel-Lipsker
Just Bust A Move; Relating Subjective Evaluation To Objective Measurements In Hip – Hop Dance, Joshua A. Vicente, Belle P. Ponce De Leon, Makena Savola, Rabbani Nzeza, Summer Diaz, Wendy Pham, Thomas (Rex) Ruswick, Dr. Jacob Hinkel-Lipsker
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
Being globally recognized as a performance art and mode of expression, Hip - hop dance is becoming more prevalent in today’s modern dance and popular culture. With multiple renditions across the globe on what encompasses Hip - hop dance on various social media platforms and the different sub styles of hip-hop dance that currently exist, there are a limited number of ways to assess a dancer and their ability without relying on a high amount of subjectivity from those that are watching it. PURPOSE: To investigate the relationship between common dance moves (like the Arm Wave & Inverted Happy Feet) …
A.R.G! Augmented Reality And Gait: Analyzing The Influence Of Cues On Gait Patterns In Augmented Reality, Gwendolyn R. Retzinger, Borna Golbarg, Rabbani R. Nzeza, Wendy T. Pham, Milad Mehrjou, Summer M. Diaz, Jacob W. Hinkel-Lipsker

International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
Use of Augmented Reality (AR) technology for rehabilitation has drastically increased in recent years. While theoretically AR can be used to cue gait adaptations such as changes to step length and cadence through visual and auditory cues, it is still unknown how people respond to the technology. PURPOSE: To assess the feasibility of external visual and auditory cues delivered through AR on spatiotemporal gait outcomes in a healthy, young population. METHODS: 20 healthy participants between age 18 and 35 were screened and recruited to perform randomized gait trials consisting of four different cueing conditions. The participants wore a Magic Leap …
Individuals Following Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Respond Differently To Limb Loading Instruction: A Clustering Analysis, Willa Ma, Susan Sigward
Individuals Following Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Respond Differently To Limb Loading Instruction: A Clustering Analysis, Willa Ma, Susan Sigward
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
Individuals following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLr) demonstrate altered loading strategies such as shifting mechanical demand away from the surgical knee. Previous work found that individuals can restore limb loading symmetry with instruction to equalize weight distribution between limbs during a squat task. However, when looking at individual responses to these instructions, it appear that not all individual responded similarly. PURPOSE: To use k-means clustering to describe the variation in response to instruction to equalize weight between limbs in individuals 3-4 months post-ACLr. METHODS: We performed a secondary analysis of a dataset including two groups: individuals 110.4 days …
Impact Of Latin Ballroom Dancing On Gait Biomechanics, Grace Hanks, Tyler Standifird
Impact Of Latin Ballroom Dancing On Gait Biomechanics, Grace Hanks, Tyler Standifird
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
Purpose: Past research has focused on biomechanical changes, kinematic differences, and injury rates among dancers compared to healthy non-dancers. This research has shown that there are differences biomechanically between dancers and healthy non-dancers which indicates that various forms of dance training has both potential short- and long-term effects on an individual (Yihong et al, 2018, Prochazkova et al, 2014, Tepla et al, 2014, Turner et al 2018). The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of Latin ballroom dance training on gait. Methods: 24 participants, (12 Latin dancers, 12 recreationally active non-dancers; 12 males,12 females) between the …
Unilateral Load Carriage In Golf Increases Frontal Plane Moment Demand At The Knee, Guanrong Cai, Jordan Cannon, Yunsheng Zou, George Salem
Unilateral Load Carriage In Golf Increases Frontal Plane Moment Demand At The Knee, Guanrong Cai, Jordan Cannon, Yunsheng Zou, George Salem
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
Golf equipment transportation (GET) is a regular task in the sport of golf, a popular activity with more than 66 million participants globally. Unilateral GET is commonly practiced by junior and collegiate golfers, and professional caddies, who incur large walking distances daily, especially during competition. Therefore, the influence of GET on knee mechanics during gait has important implications for performance and injury risks. Furthermore, frontal-plane lower extremity (LE) demands including knee abductor moment during activities may alter knee mechanics and contribute to pain and progression of osteoarthritis (OA). Purpose: To compare the frontal-plane knee moments of two different GET methods …
