How low can we go? Influence of sample rate on equine pelvic displacement calculated from inertial sensor data (2020)
Journal Article
Pfau, T., & Reilly, P. (2020). How low can we go? Influence of sample rate on equine pelvic displacement calculated from inertial sensor data. Equine Veterinary Journal, https://doi.org/10.1111/evj.13371

Background Low‐cost sensor devices are often limited in terms of sample rate. Based on signal periodicity, the Nyquist theorem allows determining the minimum theoretical sample rate required to adequately capture cyclical events, such as pelvic mo...

Quantitative lameness assessment in the horse based on upper body movement symmetry: The effect of different filtering techniques on the quantification of motion symmetry (2020)
Journal Article
Serra Bragança, F. M., Roepstorff, C., Rhodin, M., Pfau, T., Van Weeren, P. R., & Roepstorff, L. (2020). Quantitative lameness assessment in the horse based on upper body movement symmetry: The effect of different filtering techniques on the quantification of motion symmetry. Biomolecular NMR Assignments, 57, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bspc.2019.101674

Quantitative gait analysis in horses is rapidly gaining importance, both clinically and in research. The number of available systems is increasing, but the methods of signal analysis differ between systems and research groups. Our objectives are to d...

The effect that induced rider asymmetry has on equine locomotion and the range of motion of the thoracolumbar spine when ridden in rising trot (2020)
Journal Article
MacKechnie-Guire, R., MacKechnie-Guire, E., Fairfax, V., Fisher, M., Hargreaves, S., & Pfau, T. (2020). The effect that induced rider asymmetry has on equine locomotion and the range of motion of the thoracolumbar spine when ridden in rising trot. Journal of Equine Veterinary Science, 88, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jevs.2020.102946

There is a paucity of evidence on the effect that rider asymmetry has on equine locomotion. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of rider asymmetry on equine locomotion by using a novel approach to induce rider asymmetry. Ten non-lame hor...
