Combine measurements from different sources such as motion capture, electromyography, and environment variables to analyze scenarios close to real-world sports situations e.g. soccer biomechanics. The anatomically detailed human model of the AnyBody Modeling System provides the basis for investigating muscle forces, tendon strains, joint contact forces and much more.
Examples of analysis within football / soccer biomechanics:
- Investigate mechanisms of soccer injuries
- Sports injury risk identification
- Investigate movement strategies
- Estimate muscle activity
- Investigate muscle injuries e.g., adductor injuries, groin injuries, ACL injuries etc.
- Soccer / football biomechanics
- Biomechanics of kicking a soccer ball
