Living Physics Portal: Human Motion media from Humanized Physics Project

Abstract: Link to the Humanized Physics media page website where Understanding Human Motion media files are available for download. These were compiled in a CD given out to all attendees at the 2004 AAPT Summer Meeting. Dynamic floor force vectors acting on moving subjects are visualized. A wide variety of human movements are covered in areas of sports, exercise and dance. Samples from this collection are shown, with video file update conversion and added force and motion graphs from the Excel data.
