We are really excited to hear that CAMERA Research Associates Laurie Needham, Logan Wade and Murray Evans have had abstracts accepted at the Virtual XXVII Congress of the International Society of Biomechanics in Stockholm. Laurie, Logan and Murray’s work focuses on how applications of markerless motion capture may significantly reduce...
CAMERA Co-Investigator, Dr Elena Seminati joined the University of Bath in September 2014 as teaching fellow and is now a lecturer in clinical biomechanics in the Department for Health. Obtaining the Laurea degree (BSc plus MSc) in Biomedical Engineering (2007) from Politecnico di Milano and a PhD degree in Human...
4pm, Tues 7th May, CB 2.6, University of Bath Alan will talk about the specialised anatomy of athletic animals, with particular reference to muscle-tendon interaction. He will talk about the development of technology using high accuracy GPS and inertial sensors for studying locomotion of free-ranging animals in their natural environment and...
European Space Agency Project Update Researchers at CAMERA, James Cowburn, Dr Dario Cazzola, and Dr Steffi Colyer have been assessing the movement forces on human lower limbs in low gravity settings using computer simulation and anti-gravity devices. The joint European Space Agency (ESA) – University of Bath project aims to...
A warm welcome to Dr Laurie Needham who has joined CAMERA as a Research Associate in the Department for Health and will be exploring the use of markerless motion capture and other computer vision techniques for applications within sports biomechanics. Dr Needham received his PhD in biomechanics and motor control...
Dr Elena Seminati gave a fascinating Bath University TEDx 2019 talk at The Edge. This free event had 9 speakers covering a wide range of subjects, ranging from homelessness, disabilities, advances in the medical field and world policies. You can watch the event video here. Dr Seminati is a lecturer...
An exciting new project has been launched at CAMERA. Researchers James Cowburn, Dr Dario Cazzola, Dr Steffi Colyer and Dr Aki Salo will assess the movement forces on human lower limbs in low gravity settings using computer simulation and anti-gravity devices. A joint European Space Agency (ESA) – University of...
Another article by Dr Steffi Colyer and Dr Aki Salo (with researchers Dr Ryu Nagahara and Dr Yohei Takai) has been selected as the Editor’s Choice for December 2018 in the prestigious Scandinavian Journal of Medicine and Science in Sports. How sprinters accelerate beyond the velocity plateau of soccer players:...
We have two new papers recently published. How sprinters accelerate beyond the velocity plateau of soccer players: Waveform analysis of ground reaction forces The forces applied to the ground during sprinting (as well as aerodynamic drag) directly determine an athlete’s acceleration, which is clearly important to many athletics events, but...
