Abstract
TORRES RUIZ, Andrea. ANÁLISIS BIOMECÁNICO DE LA ESGRIMA MEDIANTE SISTEMAS OPTOELECTRÓNICOS DE ANÁLISIS DE MOVIMIENTO: ESTUDIO DE CASO: DEPORTISTA DE ALTO RENDIMIENTO. Rev. ing. biomed. [online]. 2007, vol.1, n.2, pp.30-39. ISSN 1909-9762.
This article presents the study of fencing techniques through biomechanical analysis, using optoelectronic systems that capture in real time two main gestures: advance and lunge, with the objective to digitally characterize the biomechanics, for its further kinematical analysis to describe the fencer's technique in the movement execution. This study was made to characterize position curves, joint angles, velocity and acceleration of each of the markers located on the athlete's body, in a quantitative manner. This study was developed on a high performance athlete in sword modality.
Keywords : Movement analysis; Sports biomechanics; Fencing.
