Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Muscle synergy: calculated from the muscle activity waveform measured by electromyography COP: Floor reaction force is measured with a floor reaction force meter and COP is calculated.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The following parameters are calculated using a 3D motion analysis system Kinematic parameters: joint angle, joint angular velocity Kinematic parameters: inter-articular forces, joint torque
