walking
Seventeen male participants (age: 22.8 ± 3.0 years old, height: 1.76 ± 6.2 m, weight: 67.7 ± 5.9 kg, resting heart rate: 66.5 ± 7.0 bpm) without cardiovascular and chronic respiratory problems were recruited. None of the gathered participants had a history of neuromuscular disorders within the past six months. Each participant performed three 30-minute treadmill or terrain running experiences every week in order to maintain his aerobic capability. Participants provided their informed consent after receiving an overview of procedures and potential risks.

An understanding of local walking context plays an important role in the analysis of gait in humans and in the high level control systems of robotic prostheses. Laboratory analysis on its own can constrain the ability of researchers to properly assess clinical gait in patients and robotic prostheses to function well in many contexts, therefore study in diverse walking environments is warranted. A ground-truth understanding of the walking terrain is traditionally identified from simple visual data.

This dataset contains leg joint kinematics, kinetics, and EMG activity from an experimental protocol approved by the Institutional Review Board at the University of Texas at Dallas. Ten able-bodied subjects walked at steady speeds and inclines on a Bertec instrumented treadmill for one minute per trial. Each subject walked at every combination of the speeds 0.8 m/s, 1.0 m/s, and 1.2 m/s and inclines from -10 degrees to +10 degrees at 2.5 degree increments, for a total of 27 trials.
