Run3D LIMITED: A NOVEL PROTOTYPE 3D-GAIT RETRAINING SYSTEM FOR DIAGNOSIS, CORRECTION AND REALTIME MONITORING OF JOINT AND MUSCULAR INJURIES.

据估计，83%的肌肉骨骼损伤与体育活动有关（维基百科）。在英国，每年有超过400万的业余运动员遭受这种经常性的身体损伤，通常是由于不良的跑步方式或姿势或过于雄心勃勃的训练造成的。这不仅破坏了个人训练计划，破坏了许多人渴望的健康益处和目标，而且还使英国经济每年损失约6090万英镑的生产力。正在开发一种新的真实的时间分析和再训练系统，用于评估和预防肌肉骨骼过度使用损伤的再次发生。与在竞技运动和需要高身体表现的职业（例如军队）中的行走和跑步相关，已经证明了在运动诊所中使用3D步态评估的概念，建立了来自临床医生的需求，并证明了对患者的结果和益处。然而，当前的技术是离线分析，限制了它的实用性，它的参与者希望真实的时间再训练作为他们运动训练的一个组成部分。这个为期18个月的项目，将开发一个原型3D步态再训练系统，最初供专家诊所使用，将实现3D步态技术的一个飞跃，首次为诊所及其患者带来用户友好的真实的时间系统。包括为临床专家和最终用户或患者提供的组件，它将为特定运动量身定制临床步态分析，真实的时间报告和重新训练的姿势和风格，以尽量减少风险的重复伤害使用Run3D的自己的运动分析。它将有一个基于网络的界面和一个智能应用程序，供最终用户通过比较性能与理想的真实的时间来监控自己的进度和恢复。

An estimated 83% of musculoskeletal injuries are sports activity related (Wikipedia).Over 4M amateur sportspeople per year in the UK suffer recurrent physical injuries of thiskind, usually caused by poor running style or posture or by over ambitious training. Not onlydoes this undo personal training plans and undermine the health benefits and goals that manyaspire to but it also costs the UK economy an estimated £60.9M per year in lost productivity.Run3D Limited, a biomechanical engineering company specialising in 3D motion analysis, isdeveloping a novel real time analysis and retraining system for assessing and preventingreoccurrence of musculoskeletal overuse injuries.Focussing first on treatment of injuries related to walking and running in athletics sports andin professions where high physical performance is required e.g. the army, it has alreadyproved the concept of using 3D gait assessment in the sports clinic, established demand fromclinicians and demonstrated the outcomes and benefits to patients.However current technology, which is an off line analysis, is limiting its usefulness and itspatients would like real time retraining as an integral part of their sports training.The 18 months long project, which will develop a prototype 3D Gait Retraining system forspecialist clinic use initially, will implement a step change in 3D gait technology, bringing auser friendly real time system to clinics and their patients for the first time.Including components for clinical specialists and for end user or patient, it will compriseclinical gait analysis tailored to the specific sport, real time reporting and retraining of postureand style to minimise the risk of repeating injuries using Run3D’s own motion analysis. It willhave a web based interface and a SMART app for end users to monitor their own progress andrecovery by comparing performance to an ideal and in real time.
