Should we charge for gait analysis?
  • It measures three-dimensional movement.
    2D video flattens movement onto a single flat plane (PC, tablet, or smartphone screen). RUNRIGHT‑3D captures movement across the body in all directions. 
  • It measures rather than relies on observation.
    Conventional video replays rely on subjective interpretation of slow-motion footage, often misinterpreting pronation as negative—an idea disproven by lead scientists. RUNRIGHT-3D offers objective, consistent (proven) metrics by measuring and calculating forces, providing the essential data to select the ideal shoe.
  • It looks beyond pronation.
    A rear-view video may focus heavily on ankle or heel movement. RUNRIGHT‑3D assesses factors such as ground contact time, braking, vertical oscillation, leg stiffness and dynamic stability.
  • It measures the runner’s performance in each shoe.
    Shoe specifications cannot predict an individual’s response. RUNRIGHT-3D compares how the runner moves in each shoe tested. 
  • It compares several shoes objectively.
    Staff can show customers whether changing shoes produced a meaningful biomechanical difference, using simple, elegant dials—not merely whether one shoe looked different on video. 
  • It combines comfort with performance data.
    Comfort remains essential, but runners cannot necessarily perceive every change in movement. RUNRIGHT-3D adds objective information to the customer’s subjective preference. 
  • It produces understandable results.
    Scores, grades and comparisons make complex biomechanics easier for staff to explain and for customers to understand. 
  • It provides a consistent process.
    Different staff members can follow the same testing protocol rather than applying different (non-validated) visual judgements. 
  • It creates a record for future visits.
    Results and shoes tested can be retained, giving the retailer a useful baseline when the customer returns. 
  • It makes the service more valuable.
    Instead of simply showing customers a running video, staff provide a structured shoe-comparison service with measurable evidence. 
  • It uses key running metrics supported by science.
    RUNRIGHT-3D utilises validated (by scientific research) metrics, so no guesswork or pseudoscience is involved. The system was validated for accuracy and reliability against a gold standard 3D system. This means the system could be used at university for research. 
  • Detailed customer reports.
    Your customers will receive a detailed report of their analysis, detailing the shoe they brought, the model and size, the speed they ran at, and the scores they achieved. They will also receive detailed information on how they can improve their running form and exercises to address areas of concern.

 


A simple message for staff

“2D video shows you running. RUNRIGHT‑3D measures how you run—and how your movement changes from one shoe to another.”
