ID 2522: One Shoe Does Not Fit All: Personalizing Longitudinal Bending Stiffness
Background: It has been shown that the longitudinal bending stiffness of shoes influences running and sprinting performance. To maximize performance, this stiffness should not be set to maximum, but rather to an individual level. While the optimal longitudinal bending stiffness differs between individual athletes, the target can not be linked to a single discrete parameter […]

ID 2511: Contactless Measurement of Acute Stress from Body Posture and Movements
Bachelor’s / Master’s Thesis / Research Internship / Project The observation of body posture and movements is a promising extension to the established biopsychological markers for stress measurement, such as self-reports, saliva, or blood samples. Body posture and movements provide additional information about emotions. This is particularly important because the emotions of shame and pride […]Bachelor’s / Master’s Thesis / Research Internship / Project The observation of body posture and movements is a promising extension to the established biopsychological markers for stress measurement, such as self-reports, saliva, or blood samples.
