Goethe Gait Lab is dealing with biomechanical measurements. Its main purpose is to study human movement with respect to normal anatomical and physiological parameters. On the one hand, it strives to enable a more complete understanding of human movement. On the other hand, it works to make deviations of movement development and execution, which are diagnosed and investigated in healthcare, measurable and possible to evaluate. As a part of this duty, it is necessary to prepare a human biological database that stores the anthropometric data of a given patient and can perform calculations based on percentile tables. In the following article, I am going to introduce the discipline that forms the theoretical basis of biomechanical measurements. This discipline is called anthropometry. Also, I am going to describe anthropometric tools currently in use, and the types of data they provide. Additionally, the possible uses for these data will be discussed. I am going to suggest a new approach for storing and accessing data, through means made possible by modern info-communication systems. A complete database and the current state of the web interface responsible for online access will also be presented. At the end of the article, I am going to discuss paths for further development.I.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
