Problem
Analyzing running and walking motion typically requires specialized equipment and lab settings, making it difficult for individuals to monitor their gait and improve their technique in everyday environments. This lack of accessible and immediate feedback hinders performance enhancement and effective rehabilitation.
Solution
Medotemic develops a mobile application that leverages smartphone sensor data to provide accessible motion analysis for running and walking. The application, "Mystep info," collects data via the smartphone's sensors when the user is in motion, ideally positioned in a waist belt on the back. Proprietary algorithms analyze this sensor data to calculate and display detailed motion parameters immediately after the activity, both in the app and on a companion website. This enables users to gain insights into their stride, identify asymmetries, and track progress over time, facilitating improved running technique, performance, and rehabilitation.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes runners seeking to improve their technique, individuals undergoing rehabilitation after injuries or surgery, and healthcare professionals monitoring patient progress.
Features
- Mobile application for iOS and Android platforms that captures motion data during walking and running activities.
- Utilizes smartphone accelerometer and gyroscope data to measure key gait parameters.
- Real-time feedback on metrics such as step length, cadence, ground contact time, and vertical oscillation.
- Graphical visualizations of motion parameters for easy interpretation and trend analysis.
- Data comparison tools to identify asymmetries and track progress over time.
- Cloud-based data storage for secure access and analysis across devices.
