  • Low impact running
    Patent number: 11872446
    Abstract: A method for gait retraining of a runner includes: measuring acceleration data of at least one lower leg of the runner; diagnosing the acceleration data thereby determining a measure of the impact intensity of at least one external tibial shock; and providing real-time feedback to the runner by converting the measure of the impact intensity into distortion of music to a level which is perceived by the runner as a measure for the impact intensity. The conversion is done based on a predefined relationship between perceived distortion levels and imposed distortion levels, and the runner can reduce the distortion of the music by adjusting his or her gait.
