Abstract 

This dataset contains gait analysis data from 120 healthy individuals, aimed at assessing and quantifying overall gait quality through a novel gait index. Key gait parameters include walking speed, maximum knee flexion angle, stride length, and stance-swing phase ratio. Additionally, demographic information such as gender, age, height, weight, and BMI is provided for each subject. These parameters were systematically selected for their significance in indicating gait mechanics and deviations from normal gait patterns. This dataset offers essential metrics for preliminary gait assessment, facilitating improved mobility outcomes, personalized rehabilitation programs, and preventive care strategies.
