questions

How does the motion capture system work?

Our camera system uses computer vision and machine learning to accurately map a skeleton onto your body. The precision of this body mapping process is around 99%, translating to a variance of <1mm between sessions. It takes <3 seconds to complete this process. The software can then record joint angles, joint velocity, center of gravity and more. A five second recording can generate 30,000+ data points about your running form.

What can I expect during my running session?

This is what you can expect in your 60 minute session:

- Review of your health history and goals
- Perform 3D motion capture testing on a treadmill
- Perform personalized functional movement and muscle strength testing
- Review the running analysis results and receive report to your email

We also recommend booking a follow-up 30 minute appointment to discuss the creation of a plan to tackle any issues that are identified in the initial running gait analysis session.

What do I need to wear in the motion capture area?

Please bring the following to your session:

- Clean, bright or light coloured running shoes
- Tight-fitting, bright coloured clothing (shorts and tank top or t-shirt)
- Hair elastic (if necessary)

Please avoid wearing black or similar coloured shorts and shirt as it may be difficult for the cameras to detect your movement accurately.

Can I use my extended health insurance?

Yes. Visits can be claimed under your Extended Health Benefits because a consult with your Physiotherapist is included.
