Joint angles of trunk, hip, knee, and ankle were processed using Theia3D. A separate study (10 different participants) evaluated the reliability of marker-based motion capture. In both technologies, full curve analysis was examined using root mean square difference (RMSD) and discrete point analysis (initial contact and peak knee flexion) using intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and standard error of measurement (SEM). Statistical parametric mapping (SPM) was also used for full curve analysis in markerless motion capture.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"results\">\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>For full curve analysis, markerless motion capture demonstrated low mean RMSD for all joints and planes in both SLS (3.6\u02da\u00b11.3\u02da) and landing tasks (forward=3.2\u02da\u00b11.3\u02da; medial=3.4\u02da\u00b11.7\u02da). SPM showed statistical difference for bilateral hip flexion (full curve) and unilateral hip adduction, rotation, and knee flexion during a percentage of landing tasks. For discrete point analysis, ICC mean indicated moderate to good reliability (SLS= 0.77; forward landing= 0.83; medial landing= 0.80) with low mean SEM values (SLS=3.1\u00b0\u00b11.3\u02da; forward landing=2.3\u02da\u00b10.9\u00b0; medial landing=2.3\u02da\u00b10.8\u02da). Marker-based motion capture showed slightly higher mean RMSD (SLS=4.2\u02da\u00b11.8\u02da; forward landing=3.5\u02da\u00b11.0\u02da; medial landing=3.3\u02da\u00b10.9) and SEM values (SLS=4.1\u02da\u00b12.2\u02da; forward landing=2.7\u02da\u00b11.2\u00b0; medial landing=2.8\u02da\u00b11.2\u02da). ICC mean showed good relative reliability (SLS=0.90; forward landing=0.88; medial landing=0.88). Hip flexion presented values &gt;5\u00b0 across tasks and technologies (RMSD and SEM= 5\u00b0 to 8\u00b0).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"conclusions\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Markerless motion capture using Theia3D can reliably measure single-leg tasks with measurement errors comparable to marker-based motion capture.
