lab facilities.

TheHPER Biomechanics Laboratory is an extensive teaching and research facility located in the Health, Physical Education and Recreation Building.

The laboratory uses techniques from biology, engineering and mathematics to understand the complexity of the neuromuscular system.

Research projects in the lab range from analysis of infant postural development to efficacy of robotic surgery. The Biomechanics Laboratory is a large space 110 by 70 feet with a 20 foot high ceiling. This space contains high speed motion capture systems, a Kistler force plate, Delsys EMG systems, two Biodex dynamometers, a virtual reality simulation environment, a body weight support system, two treadmills and numerous networking computers.
