Highlight

This study shows the potential for a marker-less human motion analysis method in a clinical setting, due to both the efficiency of the collection method and the results being more representative of natural human movement. It provides a simpler and more in-depth method of analysing and discovering new biomechanical biomarkers. In terms of the natural representation of movement, the increase of 10-15° in the range of flexion is a significant difference when it comes to the simple task of walking.
