Influence of Head Movement on Human Gait through Biomechanical Kinematic Modelling

Movement ecology is considered a vital part of our daily activity. Several studies are made to understand how human limbs move in seconds and their impact on our gait that would allow us to move from one location into another. These appendages have also to travel with the body at the time of asserting forces on the ground. In this study, we assess and model human body motion using links and joints in order to understand how the movement is done. In particular, we will focus on the effect of the position and motion of the head on human gait. The analysis is based on human gait Kinematic where the dynamics can be explored on a further study. In addition, it can then be generalized to investigate the impact of motion of different body parts on gait This analysis can be used in diagnoses of a Parkinson disease, rehabilitation, robotics and so on.
