Whole-body optical marker and ground reaction force data of healthy humans performing non-cyclic activities
摘要
The motion of the human whole-body center of mass (CoM) supplies information that is useful for controlling wearable robots and studying important aspects of human movement, such as balance. However, most datasets do not use a whole-body markerset or provide the full 3D ground reactions forces (GRFs), both of which can be crucial for accurately estimating the CoM, or mainly focus on cyclic activities such as walking. This work contains the whole-body markerset and 3D GRF measurements of 10 participants performing 14 activities, 11 of which were derived from the Berg Balance Scale test. Additionally, we provide the results of inverse kinematics and dynamics analysis, as well as estimates of the CoM position and velocity. The information in this dataset enables study of human movement in novel scenarios, with possible applications such as quantifying balance and designing controllers for powered prosthetic legs.
