Prediction of a Person’s Body Height from Traces of Locomotion

Summary/Abstract: The article presents the possibilities of predicting a person’s body height according to the dimensions of the leg or the parameters of walking. Forensic biomechanics makes it possible to study mainly trasological traces of locomotion, which have so far been on the fringes of interest in criminalistics. Trasological traces of bipedal locomotion are a typical representative of traces that refl ect the functional an dynamic properties of the acting object and it is possible to decode biomechanical content from these traces. Body height is sone of the basic characteristics that serves to identity a person. The article presents relations for the prediction of body height from the length of the leg or length of the step and two steps.
