Dear all:
I am exploring fNIRS devices to use with a Mocap system during gait analysis.
Do you have any experience with fNIRS during walking test?
What is the best portable fNIRS model to use with a Mocap system?
Are there artifacts in the fNIRS signal during walking tests? if yes, what signal filters would be applied?
Is there any model of fNIRS that can be sync (or pair) with third-party biomechanics/physiological equipments (force plate, emg, metabolic systems...)?
Thank you.
You can find answers to some of these questions in the recent paper by Lee et al., where they use a commercially available fNIRS device during walking and tripping (which will induce a larger artifact than normal walking), and synchronize with various other tools
