Visual Control of Walking Speed in Drosophila [PDF]

open access: yesNeuron, 2018
An animal's self-motion generates optic flow across its retina, and it can use this visual signal to regulate its orientation and speed through the world. While orientation control has been studied extensively in Drosophila and other insects, much less is known about the visual cues and circuits that regulate translational speed.

Validation of Walking Speed Estimation from Trunk Mounted Accelerometers for a Range of Walking Speeds [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 2021
Walking speed is a strong indicator of the health status of older people and patients. Using algorithms, the walking speed can be estimated from wearable accelerometers, which enables minimally obtrusive (longitudinal) monitoring. We evaluated the performance of two algorithms, the inverted pendulum (IP) algorithm, and a novel adaptation correcting for

Estimating Walking Speed in the Wild [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Sports and Active Living, 2020
An individual's physical activity substantially impacts the potential for prevention and recovery from diverse health issues, including cardiovascular diseases. Precise quantification of a patient's level of day-to-day physical activity, which can be characterized by the type, intensity, and duration of movement, is crucial for clinicians. Walking is a

Quantifying mechanical and metabolic interdependence between speed and propulsive force during walking

open access: yesFrontiers in Sports and Active Living, 2022
Walking speed is a useful surrogate for health status across the population. Walking speed appears to be governed in part by interlimb coordination between propulsive (FP) and braking (FB) forces generated during step-to-step transitions and is ...

The Walking Speed Questionnaire [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 2016
The literature increasingly demonstrates the importance of gait speed (GS) in the frailty assessment of patients aged 60 years and older. Conventional GS measurement, however, maybe contraindicated in settings such as trauma where the patient is temporarily immobilized.

The effects of walking speed and mobile phone use on the walking dynamics of young adults

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Walking while using a mobile phone has been shown to affect the walking dynamics of young adults. However, this has only been investigated using treadmill walking at a fixed walking speed.
