Research Interests
Movement Analysis
- Biomechanical modelling resulting from static analysis and real time movement capture
- Using multiple level rule extraction to obtain models of differing complexity
- Integration of different models to perform ‘model-based’ motion capture
- Using multi-modal fusion techniques with different data sources (accelerometers, electro-magnetic sensors, video..).
Modelling movement
- Modelling dynamic movement kinematics based on movement control laws.
- Modelling movement as a function of a changing environment, for example assessing movement in an aquatic environment. This research has lead to the creation of a robot (HERMES) which allows for the assessment of different dynamic parameters that come into play when using a fin in water.
Virtual Reality
- Using and adapting movement to study interactive behaviour in different sporting situations.
- Perception action in sport (in colaboration with the Queen's University Belfast
