Can two ordinary cameras become a simple human movement lab?
In this first lesson, we introduce the idea of exploring human movement from multiple camera views using simple browser-based tools.

No coding. No specialist cameras. Just movement, cameras and experimentation.

Why does camera position matter when analyzing human movement?
In this lesson, we explore how human movement happens in 3D while a normal camera captures a 2D view. You'll see why the same movement can provide different information from different camera positions.

Learn how to record the same human movement from two camera views using ordinary devices.
We cover simple camera positioning, sagittal and frontal views, framing, and how to capture the same movement from both perspectives.

A quick introduction to why synchronization matters in dual-camera movement analysis, what can cause timing delays, and how PoseIQ helps check synchronization quality for more reliable measurements.
Now that we've recorded movement, let's analyze it.
In this lesson, we use PoseIQ Analyze to load a video, select the movement we care about, inspect it, and explore what we can learn from the recording.
The goal isn't to measure everything. Start with one useful question, observe the movement, then measure what matters.

Now it's your turn.
In this final lesson, we bring everything together:
Predict -- Record -- Measure -- Change One Thing -- Repeat -- Explain.
Choose a movement, ask one simple question, record it from useful camera views, analyze what you see, change one thing, and repeat.

What can you learn about human movement using just two ordinary cameras?
In this short, practical course, you'll turn everyday cameras such as phones, tablets, or laptops into a simple human movement lab.
You'll explore how camera viewpoint changes what we can see and measure, how two synchronized views can provide complementary information, and how simple browser-based tools can help you record and analyze movement.
Rather than just watching lectures, you'll experiment with movement yourself.
You'll learn how to:
• Understand why camera position matters in human movement analysis
• Record the same movement from two camera views
• Synchronize recordings using PoseIQ Sync
• Explore movement using PoseIQ Analyze and PoseIQ Labs
• Design simple movement experiments
• Compare repeated movements and investigate what changes
• Recognize important limitations of camera-based movement analysis
Throughout the course, we'll use a simple scientific process:
Predict -- Record -- Measure -- Change One Thing -- Repeat -- Explain.
No coding, motion-capture laboratory, or specialist cameras are required.
This course is designed for students, coaches, exercise and sports science professionals, physiotherapists, researchers, educators, and anyone curious about biomechanics and human movement.
By the end, you'll be able to confidently design and run your own simple camera-based human movement experiment using equipment you probably already have.
