Data Request

The CAMS-Knee Dataset is a unique database of kinematics and kinetics that contains information on in vivo knee joint loading, implant kinematics by means of videofluoroscopy, whole body kinematics based on skin markers, ground reaction forces, and EMG muscle activation. The goal of the CAMS-Knee Project is to provide researchers in the field of orthopaedics and biomechanics a reliable and accurate resource to be used in lower limb or whole body model validation and research of the human musculoskeletal system.

    Please select ONLY datasets necessary for your described project.


    To provide you with an overall representative dataset, the "Stan" subject was created based on the CAMS knee datasets.
    Stan represents the standardised loading and kinematic conditions derived from intra- and inter-individual trials of different activities into single datasets representing the entire CAMS-Knee population. For full details, please refer to the corresponding publication: European Society of Biomechancis S.M. Perren Award 2022: Standardized tibio-femoral implant loads and kinematic, Journal of Biomechanics, 2022
