Manipulability Analysis of Kicking Motion in Soccer Based on Human Physical Properties

摘要

This paper presents an analysis tool of kicking motion in soccer based on robotic techniques. The developed tool can calculate kinematics, dynamics, and manipulability of trainee's movements with considerations of human physical characteristics from the trainee's postures measured by a motion capture system, and can visually provide the quantitative analysis to users in the main window of the tool. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is verified through basic experiments with skilled and unskilled subjects in soccer.
