Question

kinematic analysis of a human motion that will take one of two forms: (1) quantification of kinematic variables during a single task performed by three or more subjects, or (2) comparison of kinematic variables during a task performed by two different subjects (e.g., skilled vs. novice) or the same subject under two different conditions (e.g.,walking unloaded vs. wearing a heavy backpack). The kinematic variables you study should include one displacement (linear or angular) and one velocity (linear or angular).

What activity/sport can be done to incorporate the above and suits 2D video analysis?

Explanation / Answer

the following sports can be used for 2D analysis
1. 100 m race ( as the racer runs in just one direction and hence 2D view of this motion can be analysed easily)
2. Long Jump
3. Javelin Throw

these three sports are mostly in one dimension and hence can be easilty studied in 2D video
and these sports have measurememnts parameters that can be incorporated under the category of displacement(Angular / linear) and velocity ( angular / linear)
