  1. 1. Vertical movement asymmetries in 3-year-old SWB horses and their associations with scores in Young Horse Tests

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry

    Author : Anna Kallings Larsson; [2024]
    Keywords : orthopaedic health; objective gait assessment; conformation; linear profiling; movement asymmetry; artificial intelligence; computer vision; Swedish Warmblood;

    Abstract : To improve equine performance and welfare, many attempts have been made to investigate associations between performance, longevity, orthopaedic health, conformation and talent. Causal relationships between these qualities supported by strong scientific evidence are lacking. READ MORE

  3. 2. Movement patterns in horses with multiple limb lameness

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry

    Author : Jessica Bergdal; [2024]
    Keywords : multiple limb lameness; gait analysis; motion asymmetry; lameness assessment;

    Abstract : Disorders from the locomotion apparatus is the most common disease category in horses and a common cause for euthanasia. A frequent symptom of these disorders is lameness and to be able to treat such disorders the correct diagnosis needs to be made. READ MORE

  4. 3. The OpenXO. 3D Printed Modular Exoskeleton Segment

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Árni Þór Þorgerirsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Exoskeleton; Open-Source; Fused Filament Fabrication FFF ; Cycloidal Drive; OpenXO; precision fabrication;

    Abstract : Exoskeletons are wearable devices that enhance or supplement the user’s natural abilities. They have been demonstrated to be efective in alleviating pain, reducing work related injuries, improving working conditions, and can play a pivotal role in improving recovery times and recovery outcomes.

  5. 4. Sensor based training registration in riding horses : possible association between training regimen and locomotion asymmetry

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry

    Author : Astrid Almkvist; [2023]
    Keywords : training regimens; equisense; locomotion asymmetry; riding horses; lameness locator;

    Abstract : Lameness remains a significant welfare concern in riding horses, with over 50% of documented equine injuries attributed to this condition. The precise quantification of training activities and the objective assessment of asymmetry can contribute substantially to our comprehension of the impact of training on injury occurrence and overall performance in riding horses.

  6. 5. Gait analysis using machine learning : An implementation of temporal convolution networks on gait events and gait phase

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Sebastian Vogel Hauger; Logi Örn Axel Ingvarsson; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to explore the implementation of a temporal convolution network (TCN)on gait event detection and gait phase detection. The performance of the model is eval-uated based on whether the task is gait event detection or gait phase detection. READ MORE
