HumanTrak Test Protocol – Lateral Hop

Starting position

This test requires a stationary period before the movement commences. Remain still to allow the HumanTrak system to calibrate, following on-screen prompts before commencing the test.

• Move so that the tracking circle is to one side of the positioning circle – either to the left or right of the center depending on the hop direction.
• Face the camera, stand up straight with feet shoulder-width apart and arms by your side.
• Stand on one leg with the other leg slightly raised off the ground.

Instructions

• When ready, press the 'Start rep' button.
• Hop laterally in the direction of the stance leg (e.g., hop to the right when standing on the right leg). Land on the same leg and return to an upright position, maintaining balance.
• After stabilising, return to the starting position for the next repetition.

Repetitions

• Reps are automatically detected and displayed in the right side panel during a test.
• Reps are detected when the person lands and returns to a standing position.
• Repeat this test for the desired number of repetitions.
• Reps can be performed:
  • All on one side, then again on the other.
  • Alternating between sides.
  • On one side only.
    Data will only be collected for the testing side and won't be compared to the other limb.
