Study Details

Testing New Tools for Measuring Human Movement

(IRB#: IRB_00196293)

This study will test how to better measure and track human movement during daily mobility tasks. People in the study will perform simple tasks, including walking, standing, climbing stairs or a ladder, and reaching with their arms. Motion will be tracked using different motion capture technologies, so videos will be recorded during the study. People may wear small markers and sensors on the body to track movement and muscle activity. Being in the study requires attending one in-person study visit at the clinic for about 2 hours.
