AI-driven, markerless motion and gait analysis

Key Benefits and Features

Markerless motion and gait analysis is a revolutionary approach that uses advanced artificial intelligence (AI) to study and analyze movement patterns without the need for physical markers or sensors on the subject. This technology is particularly beneficial for applications in sports, veterinary science, and biomechanics, where natural movement patterns are crucial for accurate assessment.

No Markers Needed:

Subjects can move freely without the restriction of attached markers, leading to more natural and realistic movement data.

Advanced AI Models:

Our solution utilizing cutting-edge AI algorithms to detect and analyze key points and movements with high precision.

Data-Driven Decision Making:

Offers comprehensive data analytics, allowing for informed decision-making regarding training, treatment, and breeding.

Less Invasive:

The absence of physical markers reduces discomfort and allows for long-term monitoring.

Detailed Biomechanical Insights:

Provides comprehensive data on joint angles, gait patterns, and other critical metrics.

Cost-Effective and Accessible:

Our solution eliminates the need for expensive and complex marker setups and cameras. While makes motion analysis available to more users, including those with limited resources.

FAQ

Do You Need Special Equipment for AI Analysis?

No! Our AI-based motion analysis, is markerless. It is designed to be as non-intrusive and accessible as possible. The only requirement is high quality video which can be made with regular modern smartphones.

What are the video specifications?

Recommended Specs:

Resolution: At least 1080p (Full HD) is ideal, but higher resolutions like 4K can provide even more detail.
Frame Rate: A frame rate of 30-60 frames per second (fps) is usually sufficient, but higher frame rates can be beneficial for capturing fast movements.

Are there any advices to create the videos?

Stable Lighting Conditions

Adequate lighting is crucial for capturing clear and detailed video footage.
Natural light is often the best option, but indoor setups may require additional lighting to ensure the subject is well-lit and free from shadows.

Tripod or Stable Mount

Requirement:
- To avoid motion blur and ensure stable video footage, use a tripod or a stable mount for your camera.
Examples:
- Tripods: Adjustable tripods that can be set up at various heights to capture different angles.
- Stable Mounts: Fixed mounts or clamps for securing cameras to stable surfaces.

What type of videos do You need to create?

To conduct effective AI-based gait analysis for horses, you need to create videos that capture various aspects of the horse’s movement in different gaits and from multiple angles. Here’s a detailed guide on the types of videos you should create:

Capture different gaits: (walk, trot, canter) to analyze movement patterns and biomechanics.

Lateral View (Right and Left):

Description: Side views from the right and left, showing the full profile of the horse.
Purpose: Analyze stride length, leg movement, and overall gait symmetry.

Frontal and Rear Views:

Description: Views from the front and back of the horse.
Purpose: Evaluate limb alignment, weight distribution, and hoof placement.
