Summary is only given; This paper describes a computational method for biomechanical analysis of movement and force exerted by the joints of the lower limbs in the process of running, unlike other methods it is based on the placement of LEDs in each joint and through the acquisition and the digital image processing coordinates of the movement and force of each is obtained. The mathematical process of obtaining the coordinates so the force is detailed in this document, as the process of adapting the camera to take the data. This type of analysis will be used to determine gait patterns and the design of an exoskeleton for paraplegics.
