In 2012, our lab underwent some big changes! We went from having a classroom that doubled as a lab to getting some major improvements thanks to a grant written by Drs. Jeremy Smith and Gary Heise and other colleagues in Exercise Science (Drs. Hydock & Schneider). Here are some photos of the renovation: 

From Classroom to Lab Space 

Gunter Hall originally housed the men's and women's gyms. The original gym floor was found under the classroom floor!

New 3D motion capture:

The new lab was outfitted with a 10 camera Vicon motion capture system. 
In addition, we also have a digital video camera to capture video simultaneously with the motion capture.

Preparing for the instrumented treadmill 

We also installed an instrumented AMTI tandem belt treadmill.

During renovation a separate foundation was laid for the treadmill.

Finally done!

After the treadmill installation, and a fresh coat of paint, the lab is ready for some action!
