What its all about ...
Biomechanics is quite simply described as the Physics of Sports. In biomechanics of the human body, the laws of mechanics are applied in order to gain a better understanding of athletic performance through mathematical modelling, computer simulation and measurement. The area of physics involving analysis of the actions of forces - statics, which is the study of systems that are in a state of constant motion either at rest (with no motion) or moving with a constant velocity; and dynamics, which is the study of systems in motion in which acceleration is present, which may involve kinematics (the study of the motion of bodies with respect to time, displacement, velocity, and speed of movement either in a straight line or in a rotary direction) and kinetics (the study of the forces associated with motion, including forces causing motion and forces resulting from motion).

Diers 4D Motion Lab ...
The DIERS 4D Motion System is the leading technology in the field of 3D spine and surface topography. For the first time it is possible to visualize the complex motion pattern of the spine and pelvis during walking and to monitor the results. This technological breakthrough is based on the innovative software and an advanced camera system.
The 4D Motion System for dynamic spine measurement is the key technology for the development of the DIERS 4D Motion Lab. This motion laboratory allows the synchronized measurement of the whole musculoskeletal system in a small amount of space and with easy preparation.
3 Measurement modalities in 1 compact System:
DIERS 4D motion (Dynamic Spine & Posture Analysis)
DIERS leg axis (Video Gait Analysis)
DIERS pedogait (Dynamic Foot & Gait Analysis)
