Abstract;Because of the differentiation procedure and coodinate transformation, video analized has the problem that calculation of joint torque is inaccuracy. In this study we calculated lower limbs joint torque at knee using gyroscope and accelerometers in running. This measurement system is consist of one dual axis accelerometer and one piezoelectric gyroscope, which detects angular velocity and tangential acceleration of the shank of right leg in the sagittal plane. The resuts showed that the knee joint torque from gyroscope and accelerometer are very clearness when subject running 50m. And we found that changing peak joint torque for many steps in sprint running. (author abst.)
