[Human motion analysis system based on common video-camera]
Abstract:
A new human motion analysis system based on common video-camera is introduced in this paper. The image processing technique is used to recognize and track anatomic landmarks, which makes data processing more quickly and accurately. The system is cost-effective and can be easily operated because the common video-cameras instead of special instruments are used. Furthermore, the system can also be used for detection and analysis of other low-speed moving objects.

Absolute Motion Analysis- General Plane Motion
Visualize a drone, with its propellers spinning rapidly, hovering mid-air. The fascinating movements and operations of this drone can be comprehended by applying the principle of general plane motion.
As the drone's propellers rotate, an upward force is generated that counteracts the force of gravity, enabling the drone to lift off from the ground. This initial movement of the drone is along a straight path, representing a form of translational motion. In this phase, every point on the drone...

Relative Motion Analysis using Rotating Axes
Consider a component AB undergoing a linear motion. Along with a linear motion, point B also rotates around point A. To comprehend this complex movement, position vectors for both points A and B are established using a stationary reference frame.
However, to express the relative position of point B relative to point A, an additional frame of reference, denoted as x'y', is necessary. This additional frame not only translates but also rotates relative to the fixed frame, making it instrumental in...
