Systems for the capture and subsequent analysis of human motion are important tools in numerous fields. Their function is to capture geometric information about a human subject performing some motion from which biomechanical parameters such as muscle and joint forces can be inferred. These are in turn used to aid in clinical diagnoses, to provide a more sound understanding of a human movement process or to improve performance. Numerous applications exist that include but are not limited to: the analysis of human gait (both normal and pathological); the design of prosthetics and orthotics; patient rehabilitation; back shape and spinal motion measurement; joint mechanics; ergonomic design; human surveillance; entertainment (gaming, movies) and sports science to improve athlete performance.
