Abstract
A system and method for analyzing movement of a person includes: measuring kinetic data as the person ambulates with a pair of removable force sensors affixed to a person's ankles, feet, shoes or lower-limb prosthesis with each of the pair of force sensors on a different one of the person's ankle, feet, shoes or lower-limb prosthesis; obtaining kinematic data as the person ambulates with at least one video camera that video records the person ambulating without markers; and temporally synchronizing the kinetic data and the kinematic data together.
