Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is offered to students of any study field.
The capacity limit for the course is 100 student(s).
Current registration and enrolment status: enrolled: 4/100, only registered: 0/100, only registered with preference (fields directly associated with the programme): 0/100
Course objectives
The aim of the course is to provide students with an overview of the technological possibilities of human motion analysis in order to gain an idea of the technical, financial, time and other aspects of different methods. In addition, emphasis will be placed on the ability to work independently with the acquired knowledge and apply it in their field. The goal will be to teach the student to independently create a basic research design based on motion analysis within their main field of study and other areas of interest, and to implement simple research with the available technical equipment.
Learning outcomes
After the course the student will be able to:
- define the different methods of motion analysis and explain their principles;
- perform independently basic measurements and their evaluation;
- compare the advantages and disadvantages of different methods of analysis of human motion;
- propose an appropriate method and basic research design for the analysis of human motion in an interdisciplinary context;
Syllabus
  • 1. Introductory lesson - introduction to the topic, outline and content of individual lessons, practical requirements for individual lessons (installation of the program, applications,...)
  • 2. Movement abilities and skills - definition, taxonomy, measurement - testing, motor learning, structure and factors influencing the level of the physical performance
  • 3. Motion analysis - structure of the musculoskeletal system from a biomechanical perspective, identification of important anatomical points for analysis, review of methods: kinematic and dynamic analysis, biomechanical analysis and the technique of movement, kinematic parameters
  • 4. Kinematic analysis - motion capture, motion recording systems, spatial calibration, kinematic method, principle of evaluation of kinematic variables from video recordings, use of motion capture in various fields, selection of appropriate and key kinematic parameters for a given problem
  • 5. Focus of research in various areas using kinematic analysis, motion analysis in Kinovea
  • 6. Inertial sensors (accelerometers, gyroscopes, magnetometers), measurement principles, available systems, use of IMUs in various disciplines, use of IMUs in commercial devices
  • 7. Monitoring of physical activities, sports performance and judging by means of modern technologies (during sporting events, collegiate sports, indoor/outdoor), technological doping
  • 8. Dynamic motion analysis - mechanical principle of motion initiation and control, analysis of forces and moments of forces as the cause of motion, measurement systems, parameters to be evaluated, inverse dynamics
  • 9. Gait analysis - mechanical principle of gait, stereotype of locomotion, key parameters of the step cycle, methods of gait analysis, importance of gait analysis in various disciplines
  • 10. Static balance, methods of measurement, parameters to be evaluated and their interpretation, static balance and stability, balance measurement and evaluation in Signalplant, methods of data evaluation - statistics as part of human movement analysis
  • 11. Creation of project designs based on motion analysis for selected areas of human life (work in small groups), consultation on project creation
  • 12. Creation of project designs based on motion analysis for selected areas of human life (work in small groups), consultation on project creation
  • 13. Presentation of the created projects, evaluation
Literature

Teaching methods
Lectures, independent activity in lessons, creative theoretical activity in groups, practical measurement and evaluation of data in groups
Assessment methods
The method used to validate the intended outcomes will be the creation of a final group project proposal based on a motion analysis in an interdisciplinary context. This proposal will be created in class and then presented to others in the form of an oral presentation.
