Biomechanics Laboratory:

The work in the biomechanics laboratory includes the study of the movement of the athlete, which is performed according to the apparent form of movement, regardless of the abusive force in its events, and this is one of the branches of biomechanics, which is called kinematics. And the second part, the laboratory also provides the possibility of studying the motor performance, that is, by interpreting it in terms of knowing the force that causes it. Thus, the laboratory possesses very advanced techniques in terms of measuring devices, and they are almost the only devices in the universities of the Middle East, including the biosan as a model for that. This is a call for researchers to invest in development and qualitative leaps in measurement methods.

The remote electromyography device (EMG Bluetooth) is one of the latest devices in the field of electromyography, of Canadian origin. It gives variables specific to the electromyography of muscle work through the length and amplitude of the muscle wave, which gives an important indicator in estimating the force achieved by the main working muscles and works with transmitter and reception technology. The signal (Bluetooth) is remote and for a distance of up to (30) metres. It works on four muscles (polar electrodes). It is programmed with the personal computer using a special program. It is a portable mobile device and operates on a dry battery for (8) hours.

Mobile foot scanning device (Foot Scan) Mobile walking device, digital foot scanner (footscan), which is an electronic panel to measure the dynamics of the force exerted by the foot on the ground when running, walking, and standing, and it contains high-frequency digital sensors numbering (4096) sensors in an area (0.5) square meters, and the platform measures the following variables:

The amount of force exerted by a body on the ground is equal to a newton divided by a square centimeter.
Dynamic movement of the foot on the ground.
Measuring the amount of frequencies during the time the foot surface is in contact with the platform (ground) through
High frequency digital sensors.
The device runs on a dry battery and is programmed on a personal computer through a special analysis program with the ability to print reports.

The Monark exercise bike is one of the most famous products manufactured in the developed world. It is Swedish in origin. The exercise bike is used to evaluate functional equipment in the laboratory, as this bike is subject to international standards in regulating physical loads to detect the training and health status of athletes and non-athletes. With the possibility of connecting other devices while working on the bike, such as (electrocardiogram, lung function measurement, maximum oxygen consumption measurement), the bike is also equipped with a program that can control the regulation of physical loads from the computer, as well as calculate the amount of work done in watts in the Winget test. test. test.

Electroencephalogram (EEG) is an electroencephalogram device that records brain waves (alpha, beta, delta, theta) by sending Bluetooth information to the calculator. It also converts facial expressions in different situations into digital values. Special research can be done in the sports field in specializations. Various types of motor learning

Biosan system

This device works in three dimensions, without a camera, without wires, and with lightweight sensors (13 sensors) that are attached to parts of the body. These sensors send an RF signal at a distance of 20 meters, and save the data in the device’s memory, in addition to measuring weight and the distribution of pressure under the feet. Provides real-time animations with calculations of angles, velocity and occupancy. This device is the first in scientific advancement technology to evaluate functional biomechanics (FAB). The sensors contain a system that integrates speed and the Earth’s gravitational field, and allows for the detection of angular displacement of parts of the body biomechanically. This device displays and calculates kinematic and kinematic data in real time with motion pictures of the body and provides models. Selected schematic.
