One of the first things we do in your journey with REd Sky is check your walking and running gait with the Oryx motion capture system
Gait is the most important of our movement patterns. It provides the platform for everything we do and how we do it
Understanding movement is about more than just measuring angles and forces. Our technology captures the essence of how movement emerges by analyzing the internal dynamics and coordination of muscle synergies.
This approach provides a deeper, more accurate understanding of movement quality and performance, allowing us to quantify movement quality, stability, and adaptability
Complexity
The gait motion is complex and has many moving parts. In fact, we think that is so complex that you never exactly repeat the same stride twice in your life. There is a self-organizing principle that underlies your gait. This idea of the dynamic systems theory is the basis for your walking and running gait analysis.
When we decompose the gait cycle, we can detect several stable and unstable patterns. We call the stable patterns “attractors”.

Improving a gait pattern isn’t easy
After this initial assessment we identify these stable and unstable patterns. By defining the stable elements within movement, we gain understanding with respect to the quality of it. This allows us to customize specific exercises to address your unstable movement patterns. This requires knowledge on anatomy, physiology, movement sciences and highly specific training techniques.
