Jump Height
Jump height, a key indicator of explosive power and lower-body strength, is studied across diverse fields, from robotics to human performance analysis. Current research focuses on optimizing energy transfer during jumping, particularly addressing inefficiencies caused by inertial forces in robotic systems and validating wearable sensor accuracy against established methods like force plates and high-speed cameras for human subjects. These efforts aim to improve the design of jumping robots and provide reliable, accessible tools for assessing human athletic performance, contributing to advancements in both engineering and sports science.
