Gait analysis is an important tool for the early detection of neurological diseases and for the assessment of risk of falling in elderly people. The availability of low-cost camera hardware on the market today and recent advances in Machine Learning enable a wide range of clinical and health-related applications, such as patient monitoring or exerc...

Starting from the situation 15 years ago with a great gap between the low symbolic complexity on the one hand and the high numeric complexity of coding in Geometric Algebra on the other hand, this paper reviews some applications showing, that, in the meantime, this gap could be closed, especially for CPUs. Today, the use of Geometric Algebra in eng...

A randomized crossover trial was designed to investigate the influence of muscle activation and strength on functional stability/control of the knee joint, to determine whether bilateral imbal‐ ances still occur six months after successful anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), and to analyze whether the use of orthotic devices changes t...

Measuring and adjusting the training load is essential in resistance training, as training overload can increase the risk of injuries. At the same time, too little load does not deliver the desired training effects. Usually, external load is quantified using objective measurements, such as lifted weight distributed across sets and repetitions per e...

The quarantine situation inflicted by the COVID-19 pandemic has left many people around the world isolated at home. Despite the large variety of mobile device-based self exercise tools for training plans, activity recognition or repetition counts, it remains challenging for an inexperienced person to perform fitness workouts or learn a new sport wi...
