Following the success of the GAITRite® walkway systems in human gait analysis, GAIT4Dog® is available for clinicians & researchers worldwide for various Quadruped applications.
As a subject ambulates down the GAITFour® walkway, the system continually scans the walkway sensor array at 120 Fps (adjustable between 60 Fps and 180 Fps) and records the paw strikes of the subject, both Temporal and Spatial along with Relative Pressure. The system is used to collect multiple gait cycles at a steady speed. Video is recorded at 30 Fps providing a synchronized replay.
