EN The aim of the article is to verify the method of measuring motion capture in wheelchair during conditions of actual use and to formally describe how the measurement points are processed. The developed method and the measurement data processing process extract a set of parameters from the study that describe the kinematics of the human body while propelling a wheelchair. The method includes an algorithm to process data from video recorded with a sports camera to the coordinates of the marker position. For the selected marker positions, a data processing algorithm was proposed to determine universal parameters used in the assessment of the kinematics of the human body in terms of wheelchair use. The method has been verified with actual tests that analyzed the kinematics of the human body while propelling a wheelchair under various operating conditions. The proposed method of measuring motion capture involves inexpensive research equipment, offers the possibility of use in real conditions.
