Human Upper Limb Experimental Analysis for Complex Motions Used in Robotics

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper an experimental research was performed in case of a human complex motion. The research aim was to evaluate the joint trajectories and angular variations of a human upper limb. Thus an experimental motion analysis was performed, by using a modern equipment called VICON Equipment and the interest joints are: shoulder, elbow and wrist. The experimental activity was developed on a human subject when perform a complex motion from baseball sport. The obtained results will be useful for the temporal recovery of the athletes’ complex motions after a severe injury or to reshape the upper arm behavior when strikes the ball in case of baseball athletes.
