Three dimensional movement analysis Dr. Stuber István is the director of the 3 Dimensional Morphological and Movement Analysis Laboratory at the Physical Education and Sport Sciences Department of the Semmelweis Medicial University in Budapest. He and a student, Molnár Sándor, have been collaborating on use of this scientifi c method using the so-called ’stereoconverter’ to analyse movement. The method has many applications in medicine and sports, but they have already experimented using the method for documenting and analysing traditional dance and suggest that it could be invaluable in preserving Hungary’s rapidly disappearing traditional dance heritage.
