Markerless gait analysis through a single camera and computer vision.
Journal of Biomechanics 2024 March
The assessment of gait performance using quantitative measures can yield crucial insights into an individual's health status. Recently, computer vision-based human pose estimation has emerged as a promising solution for markerless gait analysis, as it allows for the direct extraction of gait parameters from videos. This study aimed to compare the lower extremity kinematics and spatiotemporal gait parameters obtained from a single-camera-based markerless method with those acquired from a marker-based motion tracking system across a healthy population. Additionally, we investigated the impact of camera viewing angles and distances on the accuracy of the markerless method. Our findings demonstrated a robust correlation and agreement (Rxy > 0.75, Rc > 0.7) between the markerless and marker-based methods for most spatiotemporal gait parameters. We also observed strong correlations (Rxy > 0.8) between the two methods for hip flexion/extension, knee flexion/extension, hip abduction/adduction, and hip internal/external rotation. Statistical tests revealed significant effects of viewing angles and distances on the accuracy of the identified gait parameters. While the markerless method offers an alternative for general gait analysis, particularly when marker use is impractical, its accuracy for clinical applications remains insufficient and requires substantial improvement. Future investigations should explore the potential of the markerless system to measure gait parameters in pathological gaits.
