Capture setup

Checklist

Choose treadmill or overground capture before recording.
Keep the full body and both feet visible through several strides.
Use 60 fps or higher for foot-strike review when available.
Place calibration markers in the same plane as the runner.
Record several steady-state trials per condition.
Name files with participant, surface, speed, view, date, and trial.

Running biomechanics video checklist

Running biomechanics video checklist

Protocol: overground-running
Camera: fixed side-view camera
Frame rate target: 60 fps
Scale reference: in-frame calibration marker

1. Choose treadmill or overground capture before recording.
2. Keep the full body and both feet visible through several strides.
3. Use 60 fps or higher for foot-strike review when available.
4. Place calibration markers in the same plane as the runner.
5. Record several steady-state trials per condition.
6. Name files with participant, surface, speed, view, date, and trial.

Running video setup was planned for markerless biomechanics research analysis.
Research use only. This tool is for education, protocol documentation, and research workflow planning. It is not for care decisions, participant triage, or health advice.

When to use

  • For research protocol documentation and descriptive session summaries
  • For preparing ConductVision Human Tracking video workflows
  • For organizing export-ready methods text, filenames, or CSV quality checks

Do not use for

  • For care decisions, participant triage, or health advice
  • As a substitute for IRB-approved protocol definitions or trained research review
  • As proof that a study endpoint has been validated in your study population

Keep the language research-only

Use participant, subject, trial, protocol, and research session language. Avoid care-directed interpretations.

Preserve raw files and exports

Store source video, keypoint exports, confidence values, and session notes so outputs remain auditable.

Pilot before full capture

Run one short pilot and inspect visibility, lighting, scale references, and keypoint confidence before collecting a full dataset.

Method

The tool performs deterministic arithmetic, checklist generation, or CSV summary operations in the browser. It does not assess injuries, classify participants for care, or replace a protocol approved for research use.

2

Validated

Last validated 2026-06-02. Calculations are designed for planning and documentation support; verify procurement decisions against manufacturer specifications or institutional SOPs.
