Description
This teaching unit is common to both the CSIM and Biomechanics courses. It combines skills in mechanics of indeformable solids and imaging. It applies to biomechanics, robotics and other fields related to motion analysis, such as motion capture for video games. It includes a theoretical part of courses and practical work done in collaboration with the UFR STAPS.
Objectives
The objective of this course is the analysis of motion using an inverse dynamics approach. The aim is to use the motion capture of a model system (here the human), using a system of cameras and sensors, to trace the movements of each segment. Then, using the laws of dynamics and force platforms, it is necessary to determine the forces generated in the links between the segments (or joints). These data are then used to dimension the links and segments in a design process or to analyze the forces in the joints in a biomechanical approach.
