ランニング動作における上半身centroidal dynamicsの特徴分析

抄録

In this paper, we present a method to extract the characteristic of the upper body dynamics in a running motion. Recent progress in the motion measurement technologies including the IMU-based motion capture suit allows us to visualize and evaluate detailed information of biomechanics analysis. It is getting easier for general people to use such applications. In the process to commercialize an IMU-based motion capture suit, it is important to reduce a burden when a user wears a whole-body suit. If we can estimate the whole-body dynamics only from the lower-body measurement, a lower-body suit is enough for the measurement, which can reduce the user’s burden. The purpose of this study is to estimate the whole-body dynamics estimating the upper-body dynamics. We analyze the centroidal dynamics of the upper-body in a running motion, and discuss the extraction of its characteristic.
