Figure 5.- Walking position
From the images it is possible to analyze walking behavior their evolution, so it will be
simple to show it in a graphical way (Figure 6). It is possible as well, each picture in
Figure 8, to determine mobility angles and rotation of the foot, as well as the maximum
height that is reached in any particular instant of the step.
Figure 6.- Patient locomotion
It is clear from Figure 8, that the patient walking around shows a senoidal trend in
agreement to the movement of the foot during the cycle. Also, it can be obtained the
higher and lower picks during the motion of the foot. Despite that the walking cycle is
not identical in each step, it is possible to determine on the whole what kind of tendency
is present (Figure 7).
