  • Geometric motion analysis
    Patent number: 6816632
    Abstract: A method for geometrically analyzing motion having the steps of: choosing a set of points having at least three individual points to define a single realization of a motion; sequentially collecting Cartesian coordinates of the set of points at different times during the motion from a start point to an end point; treating the collection of sets of points as a sample of the motion; and transforming the sets of points at the different times to a common coordinate system thereby defining a trajectory of the motion.
