Gait can be captured by two-dimensional video cameras of surveillance systems or by much accurate motion capture (mocap) systems which acquire motion data as a time sequence of poses.
A cap was prepared for each cone-tainer by cutting a 10-cm-long section from 3.75-cm diam polyethylene terephthalate glycol tubing (1 1/2" Ultra Thin Wall X 4.000 Tube PETG-000, Part Number: PRT.012-1.644, ClearTec Packaging, MOCAP Corporation, Park Hills, Missouri) and covering it with an inner-fit plug made of polypropylene (1 1/2" Poly Plug Natural, Part Number: PRP1.500NAT, ClearTec Packaging, MOCAP Corporation, Park Hills, Missouri).
The 3D video MoCap system Qualisys (6 digital infrared cameras Pro-Reflex) was used for capturing motion parameters (translations, velocities and accelerations) of characteristic points of the test bench where the 15 mm diameter reflective markers were affixed.
