Dr. Arielle Fisher
Research field: My research focuses on biomechanics (clinical and sports), wearable technology, and rehabilitation. By combining motion analysis, machine learning, and advanced sensing technologies, I aim to enhance mobility and improve the quality of life for individuals with orthopedic impairments. Key areas of interest include gait analysis, exoskeleton control, sports performance, and developing assistive technologies for aging populations and patients recovering from injuries.
Research projects:
“Computer Vision-Based Motion Tracking and Pose Detection in Human Movement Analysis”: This project focuses on implementing computer vision algorithms for motion tracking and pose detection using tools like OpenPose.
“Analyzing Physiological and Motion Data: ECG and Biomechanics Integration”
This project involves the integration of ECG signals with motion capture data to understand the correlation between physiological and biomechanical factors during movement.
Background requirements:
Background in Biomedical Engineering, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering or related fields. Knowledge of programming languages like Python or MATLAB. Strong analytical skills and interest in motion analysis, computer vision, or physiological monitoring. Prior experience with data processing or machine learning or computer vision or physiological signal processing is an advantage.
