*       Instrumented Treadmills for Gait Research

AMTI’s instrumented treadmills for gait and human performance research have a unique three belt design for gait reaction force separation.  Three separate belts, each equipped with a multi component force platform isolate the reaction forces under both feet during walking and running gait.  Unlike simple lateral belt arrangements, reaction force isolation is not compromised by medial cross over of the feet during the gate cycle.  This belt arrangement is accomplished by using a special belt design with small belt pulleys on the abutting ends of the belts.  This design gives a belt separation less then 0.25 inches, which results in an unnoticeable perturbation during gait.

*      Independent ground reaction force platform under each belt

*      Hydraulically controlled angular adjustment up to 25% grade

*      Built-in strain gage amplifiers with digital filtering for high accuracy measurements

*      Simple, single cable Ethernet data acquisition system

AMTI’s instrumented treadmills are designed for human performance research.  Rugged reliable construction reduces machine vibration and mechanical noise associated with the moving belt components.  The treadmill’s built in electronic signal conditioning equipment includes software selectable digital filters to assure you of the highest quality ground reaction force signals.  AMTI’s innovative Ethernet data acquisition system provides enhanced noise immunity and a clean single cable interface to your data acquisition computer.
