Can you walk and chew gum at the same time? Yes. But can you chew gum slowly and walk quickly at the same time? Maybe. But only if you try really hard. Walking and chewing gum may seem like the simplest of multitasks in a world where multitasking is not only the norm...

The study of human locomotion consists of characterizing the shortest repeatable task in walking, the gait cycle. This movement is repeated over and over in order for humans to walk through the world. In addition to measuring the magnitude and symmetry of gait...

Bipedal gait requires movements from the right and left sides of the body, which can be measured and analyzed to determine the quality of a person’s gait. A common method of analyzing the quality of gait is with spatial temporal gait parameters (STP). These...

Methods for collecting footfall data have come a long way since the days of using ink or carbon paper to make footprints on paper which were then measured with wooden rulers. Today, the gold standard for collecting accurate Spatio Temporal Parameters (STP) during gait...

Spatiotemporal Parameters (STP) are a reliable gait measurement as proven by scientific literature. All STP are derived from measuring the spatiality and temporality of foot-based placements. The first step in measuring gait analysis is to isolate the gait cycle....
