Measurement and Analysis of Gait by Using a Time-of-flight Camera

Biomedical applications generally needs measurement the human body parts in motion. On the other hand, the analysis of the human motion includes mobile measurements. The mobile measurement is complicated task because it needs two or more sensor combination, specific measurement techniques and huge computation. Thus, it is actual research topic in photogrammetry and computer sciences community. Time-of-flight (ToF) camera can make measurement the moving object. It can be used for robotic and simultaneous localization and mapping applications. Human motion capture is recent application area for ToF camera. In this study analysis of the body motion were made with time-of-flight camera. We made measurement to runner on treadmill. The motion was analysed with computing the angle between body parts.
