Markerless Motion Capture in Foot and Ankle Surgery

Proof of Concept: ROM measured by the markerless system compared to clinical examination using a goniometer and motion capture analysis. The ROM of the ankle joint in the sagittal plane and the ROM of the subtalar joint in coronal plane of 20 healthy subjects will be analysed using three different methods: Clinical examination using a goniometer, Markerbased motion capture system, Markerless movement analysis. ROM measurements will be performed on both feet of 20 participants (40 feet total). Each measurement method will be performed 10 times per foot. Goniometer measurements will be performed by two independent investigators (10 measurements each), while marker-based and marker-less measure

Research on the Evolution, Geometry, and Alterations of the Periorbital Region Based on Age and Deformations

The periorbital region of the face is a critical area affected by aging. Motion Capture (MoCap) allows the precise measurement of the mechanical properties of skin in this region. This study will validate MoCap as a tool for quantifying these properties, comparing it to traditional reference tools, and exploring how these properties evolve with age and external treatments. It will also assess MoCap's ability to detect the effects of various treatments such as tightening products and massages. Ultimately, this research will provide a deeper understanding of skin dynamics in the periorbital region and offer insights into both medical and cosmetic applications.
