3D Running Gait Analysis

Powered by RunDNA Helix 3D

Get a closer look at how you run with RunDNA Helix 3D. With this technology, we are able to track how your joints move, how your feet strike the ground, and how your body moves through each stride. With your results, we develop a plan to help you refine your running form so you can move with greater efficiency and confidence.

How Is A 3D Gait Analysis Different From 2D?

Traditional video captures movement in two dimensions, while RunDNA uses body sensors and infrared cameras to capture your movements in 3D. This data provides insights into critical aspects of your running, such as stride length, cadence, trunk lean, hip drop, and foot landing.

How It Works

  1. Motion Capture

    Lightweight markers are placed on key points of your body.

  2. Movement Analysis

    As you run on a treadmill, the system evaluates your running mechanics to identify movement patterns and asymmetries.
