  4. 4. A New Approach for Positioning Human Body Models Utilising the 3D-Graphics Program Blender

    University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Author : Jesper Eiderbäck; Felix Jahnke; [2023]
    Keywords : Human Body Model; HBM; positioning; THUMS; Blender; Radial basis function.; Mänsklig kroppsmodel; HBM; positionering; THUMS; Blender; Radiell Basfunktion;

    Abstract : A finite element human body model (FE HBM) is a detailed virtual model of the human body that, for example, is used for simulating traffic accidents. A problem with HBMs is that there is no simple way to position the HBMs in non-standard positions. READ MORE

  5. 5. Towards a feedback system for upper body bodyweight exercises using multiple inertial measurement units : A user-centred approach

    University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Author : Panagiota Papadopoulou; [2023]
    Keywords : IMU sensors; bodyweight training; machine learning; real-time feedback; push-ups; tricep dips; plank;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the feasibility of developing an affordable and easy-to-use feed- back system that leverages information from multiple inertial measurement units (IMUs) to identify mistakes during upper body bodyweight training and provide real-time feedback to the user. To develop the system, a human-centered approach was used, which involved conducting semi-structured interviews with movement ex- perts and a workshop with targeted end-users to understand their needs.
