Measuring and databasing of body kinematics and lower limb muscle activities during human upright stance and locomotion

We established a standardized XML-based data format that can describe human body motions representing kinematic experimental data and force-related kinetic data based on a mathematical model of human body movements. In parallel to this, we performed experimental and theoretical studies on neural control during human upright postural and bipedal locomotion. In particular, we propose a new control hypothesis and mathematical model for upright quiet standing called an intermittent control hypothesis. The experimental data were stored in the standard format and they are open in the public domain for reuse and data sharing.
