Caption

Wilhelmina is led across K-State's video synchronization pressure mat to determine her level of lameness before surgery. The day after surgery, her stride length had increased 30 percent and she was bearing 25 percent more weight on her operated leg. The red, orange and yellow tones indicated Wilhelmina's steps. The blue and green tones at the top of the screen indicate the students' footsteps who are leading and following her.
