About Us

Associated with the Running Injury Clinic and the University of Calgary’s Faculty of Kinesiology, the 3D Gait Analysis System is an innovative health solution helping prevent and treat running and walking injuries.

After four years of research and development, Dr. Reed Ferber and his team have developed the world’s largest database of 3-dimensional biomechanical walking and running data.

A patient’s data is collected by our motion capture system, analyzed using our custom-written software, and compared to the ever-growing 3D gait analysis database to:

• Help a clinician determine the root cause of a musculoskeletal injury and
• Prepare a personalized 3D Gait Analysis Biomechanical Report.

The collected data is subsequently added into the database to continue the development and engagement of clinical research.
