In this project we had to analyzed how people walked and find a correlation between their gait and a physical attribute. Once we found a correlation we had to use the data to predict the physical attribute of a subject by just looking at their graphed gait.
Concepts
Accelerometer:
A device that measures the physical acceleration experienced by an object
Gait:
The stride of a human as they move their limbs
G-Force:
A force acting on a body as a result of acceleration or gravity. 1 g of force is equal to the weight of the body.
Coefficient of Determination:
The proportion of the variance in the dependent variable that is predictable from the independent variable.

Reflection
One peak in this project was that my group was very productive and we always knew what needed to get done. Another peak in this project was we gained an in-depth understanding of how we walked.
One pit was I had to work on the OP-51 so I was not always aware of what was happening with the project. Another pit was we had poor communication, this made it hard to work on the project outside of class.
