Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of low frame rate video in 2D Kinovea® compared to 3D Qualisys Track Manager (QTM) on drop jump by interpolation. A total of 74 jumps were collected from 37 athletes. Reflective markers were placed on specific anatomical points (right/left upper point of acromion, anterior superior iliac spine, knee, foot) of the athletes. A single trial of a double-legged drop jumps were performed from two different box heights. QTM recorded all jumps using cameras at 500 Hz and synchronized with video at a speed of 30 Hz. All reflective markers were tracked and analysed in QTM and Kinovea. The horizontal and vertical positions of all reflective markers for jump instants (first contact, take-off, second contact) obtained both in QTM and the Kinovea, were exported to MS Excel. Kinovea data were interpolated to 500 Hz in Matlab software using a linear method. Horizontal and vertical displacement parameters were calculated in MS Excel, as the differences of the position data between the instants for the two different phases of the jumps (contact and flight phases). The Bland-Altman method was used for those parameters in JASP 0.17.1. The results showed significant agreement between QTM and Kinovea for the horizontal position parameters of left and right foot at first contact of drop jump. No significant agreement was found for the vertical displacement parameters during the contact and flight phases. In conclusion, to obtain accurate results in Kinovea, especially in the vertical displacement for a movement, it is recommended that the frame rate of the video should exceed more than 30 Hz.

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı, derinlik sıçramasında 2D Kinovea®'daki düşük kare hızlı videoyu interpole ederek doğruluğunu 3D Qualisys Track Manager (QTM)’e göre değerlendirmektir. Çalışmada 37 sporcudan toplam 74 sıçrama alınmıştır. Sporcuların belirli anatomik noktalarına (akromiyonun sağ/sol üst noktası, anterior superior iliak omurga, diz, ayak) yansıtıcı işaretleyiciler yerleştirilmiştir. İki farklı kutu yüksekliğinden tek tekrarlı derinlik sıçraması gerçekleştirilmiştir. QTM tüm atlayışları 500 Hz hızında kameralar kullanarak kaydetmiş ve 30 Hz hızında video ile senkronize etmiştir. Tüm yansıtıcı işaretler QTM ve Kinovea'da takip ve analiz edilmiştir. Hem QTM hem de Kinovea'da tüm yansıtıcı işaretleyicilerden elde edilen sıçramanın bölümlerine ait (ilk temas, kalkış, ikinci temas) yatay ve dikey konum verileri MS Excel'e aktarılmıştır. Kinovea verileri Matlab yazılımında doğrusal bir yöntem kullanılarak 500 Hz'e interpole edilmiştir. Yatay ve dikey yer değiştirme parametreleri MS Excel'de, atlayışların iki farklı fazı (temas ve uçuş fazları) için anlık pozisyon verileri arasındaki farklar olarak hesaplanmıştır. Bu değişkenler için JASP 0.17.1'de Bland-Altman yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Sonuçlar QTM ve Kinovea arasında derinlik sıçramasının ilk temasında sol ve sağ ayağın yatay pozisyon parametreleri için anlamlı bir uyum olduğunu göstermiştir. Temas ve uçuş fazlarındaki dikey yer değiştirme parametreleri için anlamlı bir uyum bulunmamıştır. Sonuç olarak Kinovea’da özellikle hareketin dikey yer değiştirmesinde doğru sonuçlar elde etmek için, video kare hızının 30 Hz'den fazla olması önerilmektedir.
