The Trail Guide

Every stop, game, field guide, and side-trail on this site, in one map.

The Route: The main trail (home)

TrailheadWho I am, in brief: Biomechanics, signals, and building things.Go → Places I Have BeenThe interactive map of where I grew up, studied, and worked.Go → ConnectionsDraw your fix for three real transportation barriers, then see what was built and why it mattered.Explore → Common GroundThird places, public land, and the right to roam. Ride the Schuylkill, read the lopsided map, and see where you are allowed to walk.Explore → Things I Have BuiltThe research tools behind the work.Go → Research & RésuméPublications, metrics, and a downloadable résumé.Go → Journey's EndWhere to find me.Go →

The Arcade: Games

Zero InMatch the signal. Rebuild a hidden processing chain. (Signals)Play → 1D ChessCollapse the board to a line. Principal component analysis, by hand. (Signals)Play → Move InDraw a joint angle and the body obeys. Inverse dynamics in your hand. (Biomechanics)Play → Drop InTune the material, not the shot. A physics puzzle. (Physics)Play → Fold InFold a ring of glyphs onto its target. Group theory in your hands. (Math)Play →

Odds & ends

Field LexiconPlain-language definitions for the words I throw around.Open → Anatomy of a StrideScrub a running gait cycle, with leg, force, and joint angles together.Open → The Long RunA scrollable, multi-thread history of running science and biomechanics, from Muybridge to the super-shoe. (Biomechanics)Open → Anatomy of a SignalSample and filter a noisy accelerometer impact, and see when the number can be trusted.Open → RésuméThe PDF, if you would rather skim than scroll.PDF ↗
