Innovation in Physiotherapy Diagnosis & Intervention – Motion and Movement Analysis by Machine Biomechanics

A new benchmark in the field of physiotherapy for diagnostics and intervention is through the non-invasive methods like gait analysis by motion picture. There’s a lot of software available in the market and we found accuracy in picture and analysis in Simi Reality Motion System. Aligned with that, MAHSA University shows a new path for students of Physiotherapy and Sports Science on how to capture motion using Motion Analyzing Simi Machine with hybrid technology.

Motion Analysis Biomechanics:

Most physiotherapy assessments normally analyze joint motion in different degree manually and it’s always externally and consistently used to face lot of errors in assessment. However, in motion analysis through the Simi Machine, it shows the accuracy of motion where it is restricted and demonstrates angulation variation.

Its Characteristics

In its system, it has features like three motion capture, 2D Gait analysis, 3D Gait analysis, markless 3D motion tracking, marked 3D motion tracking, and hybrid 3D motion capturing. This system is fully integrated motion tracking and powered by software. It will be helpful for educators, sports coaches, researchers, biomechanics and others as they are able to track, stream and give output accurately when using this system. It is so precise and is opt to utilize for getting reliable data.

In addition, it can consume all possibilities of Simi Motion regarding data acquisition namely force plates, kinematics combined high speed video, EMG, pressure, data processing, and data analysis. Furthermore, this system has two unique features of technology marker-based and marker less. It also has a hybrid variety which is very useful for analyzing motion and movement.

Roles of SIMI-Gait analysis and Motion Capture in Sports

This infrastructure will definitely improve sports technique and angulation whereby kinetics and kinematics of sports persons are measured through data. In addition, it would also be able to use to help prevent sports injury due to faulty posture and motion.

This picture shows our Research Team during their learning process on how it can be beneficial for our students and researchers of Physiotherapy and Sports Science Department. The knowledge and practical skills exposed will develop our young researchers to emerge out of box to think.

Shattering Stereotypes: First Malaysian Indigenous Dentist

The Department of Orang Asli Development (JAKOA) recently extended their congratulations to Dr Tan Bee Hui, who became the first indigenous person to earn the title of Dentist. JAKOA's message was shared on their TikTok page (@jakoamalaysia) based on a post made by the Malaysia Orang Asli Students' Association (PMOA) on their Facebook page. PMOA shared this announcement on their social media on September 30th. Tan Bee Hui A/P Tan Boon Huat is MAHSA University Dental Faculty Alumni who successfully completed her Bachelor of Dental Surgery earlier this year. She received her early education at SJK (C) Kuala Rompin and SMK Rompin before continuing her studies at Kolej Mara Banting. It's understood that Tan Bee Hui's interest in education was driven by the dedication of her mother, who frequently taught her and her sibling at home. As a Jakun indigenous person, she believes that education has the power to change her family's destiny and break free from the cycle of pove...

Food Hygiene and Safety Study Tour to Yakult Factory in Seremban

On 28 July 2022, The Environment Health Department of MAHSA University organised a study trip for the students of Faculty of Education and Health Sciences to the Yakult Factory located at Oakland Industrial Park, Seremban, Negeri Sembilan. Three lecturers and fifteen students from Environmental Health Department and Centre of Education and Language went on this trip. At 9.30am, all eighteen participants of the trip departed from MAHSA University and arrived at the Yakult Factory at 10.15am where we were warmly received by Yakult’s Public Relations staff who also our guide for the day, Ms. Sharifah. Pre-departure to Yakult Factory, Seremban Briefing by Ms Sharifah at the Yakult Factory, Seremban Upon arrival, Ms Sharifah delivered a short briefing to introduce herself and informed us on the itinerary for the visit which included a tour of the production facility, Yakult tasting session and an educational presentation First activity of the day was the visit to ...
