Funkcinės klasės neįgaliųjų plaukikų kūno stabilumas ir jo įtaka rankų koordinacijai plaukiant laisvu stiliumi / The body stability in water and hand coordination of disabled swimmers function class swimming in freestyle

Gilaitienė, Dovilė 18 May 2005 (has links)
One of the main features of motory is coordination. In order to understand the hand coordination of disabled swimmers swimming in freestyle better, it’s vital to asses their body stability in water. The goal of the research is to measure the body stability in water and hand coordination of disabled swimmers function class swimming in freestyle. 6 disabled swimmers took part in the research. They were filmed from the front and from the side using an underwater filming system that was moving along the side of the pool. While filming from the side, camera was tracking the swimmer in order to capture five swimming cycles, both: from the right and the left sides of the body. While filming from the front, camera was still and the swimmers were swimming towards it; this was done to determine the swinging of their bodies along the longitudinal axis. Body’s stability was measured in two ways: when the swimmer was evenly lying on the surface of the water and when swimming in freestyle. Stability was valued on two planes (in sagittal and transverse) analyzing video data captured while swimming in freestyle. With the help of computer program SIMI MOTION 2 D still mode, angles in sagittal plane were measured: between trunk and horizontal; between leg and horizontal; between the body’s line (the straight connecting the joints of knee and shoulder) and horizontal. In the transverse plane, the angle between the straight connecting shoulders joints and horizontal were measured... [to full text]

Varför Ava-tar de på allt? : En kvalitativ analys av hur visualiseringen av händers interaktion påverkar hur åskådare upplever världen i filmen Avatar / Ava-Targeting Hands? : A Qualitative Analysis of How the Visualisation of Hand Interaction Affects the Viewers’ Perceptions of the World in the Movie Avatar

Campbell, Cassandra January 2023 (has links)
Denna uppsats är en fenomenologisk studie som utreder hur visualiseringen av händer påverkar hur filmbetraktare upplever världen i filmen Avatar.  Analysen utreder tre scener från Avatar, som visar händer som interagerar med föremål som är okända för både filmkaraktärens och betraktarens del. Undersökningen applicerar teorier inom fenomenologi, perception, kognitionsteorier, och science fiction som narrativ form, i syfte att utreda hur människor påverkas av att betrakta händers interaktion i ett filmsammanhang. Resultatet i analysen landar i att visualiseringen av händers interaktion kan ha flera olika effekter för hur filmåskådaren upplever scenerna som har utretts. Interaktionerna har bland annat en narrativ funktion då de förmedlar information om hur den fiktiva filmvärlden är uppbyggd, vilket i sin tur fångar åskådarens intresse och skapar spänning. Vidare styrker fenomenologiska teorier att interaktionerna kan trigga sensoriska upplevelser hos betraktaren i form av exempelvis taktila förnimmelser. Analysen landar även i att åskådare kan triggas till att vilja interagera med filmmiljön på egen hand, eftersom teorier inom kognition styrker att händers närvaro gör att vi tolkar omgivningen som interaktiv. Samtidigt påvisar även resultatet att upplevelser är svåra att mäta, och att våra tolkningar skiljer sig åt eftersom de formas av våra tidigare erfarenheter och intressen. Analysen avslutas med en kritisk reflektion kring resultatet och öppnar sedan upp för hur ovannämnda aspekter kan bana väg för forskning inom filmberättande, medicin, interaktionsdesign, UX-design, och visuell kommunikation, samt hur analysen i uppsatsen hade kunnat breddas till en större studie.     Denna uppsats inkluderar även en designdokumentation efter sida 44 vid namn ”Arg på vargen?”, som är en del av examensarbetet som denna uppsats ingick i vid programmet Visuell kommunikation på Malmö Universitet. ”Arg på vargen?” är en animerad teater som belyser varför vargar behövs i den svenska naturen. / This essay is a phenomenological study that explores how the visualisation of hands affects the viewer’s perception of the world in the movie Avatar. The essay analyses three scenes from Avatar, consisting of hands that interact with objects that are unknown to both the movie character and the viewer. The analysis applies theories within phenomenology, perception, cognition, and science fiction as a narrative form, as it aims to explore how viewers perceive the interaction of hands in the context of watching a movie. The results suggest that the visualisation of hands can have several outcomes, regarding how the viewer reacts while watching the scenes that were involved in this study. The interactions serve a narrative function, as they convey information about the construction of the fictional film world. This in turn, engages the viewer’s interest and creates anticipation. Theories within phenomenology support that viewers can experience sensory perceptions, such as tactile sensations, while watching the scenes. The analysis also concludes that viewers may wish to interact with the film world by using their own hands, as cognition theories support that the presence of hands in our field of vision, prompts us to interpret our surroundings as being interactive. The findings in this study also conclude that experiences are difficult to measure and interpret, since our perceptions are shaped by our previous experiences and interests. The essay closes with a critical reflection on the results and elaborates on how the findings can be applied to different research fields, such as film narration, medicine, interaction design, UX design, and visual communication, followed by how the analysis in this essay could be expanded into a larger study.
