Motion analysis lab with high-speed cameras
CONTEMPLAS have set up in Munich the first gait lab using 100Hz high-speed cameras
to perform video gait and running analysis in the daily work.
The new gait center is situated in Munich and a specialist for holistic,
physiotherapeutic motion analysis, uses 4 synchronous cameras to analyse the gait
movement.

Setup and technology:
The video sequences for gait analysis are captured by two DV-cameras
from lateral left and right, and by two 100Hz high-speed cameras
from a dorsal position.
The video analysis software TEMPLO is compressing the enormous data stream in real-time
and automatically prepares analysis-relevant views once the video capture is finished.
To guarantee an optimal video quality, special spots are set up which ensure an
equal illumination of the analysis location without shades.
An h/p/cosmos treadmill of the product line Quasar completes the professional design
of the analysis lab.
Gain for the customer:
In account of the higher image quality and the higher frequency of the high-speed
cameras the accuracy of the measurement has been significantly increased in comparison
to traditional DV-camcorders.
A deeper insight into the sequence of movements is provided and the intra-individual
comparison of running and gait movements can be analysed more detailed.
The whole concept of this gait center combined with the high-end technical equipment
is setting new standards in motion analysis.

We want to thank Mr Markus Kling, who greatly supported the realisation of this
project with his cooperation. For more information have a look at their website.
