ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Biological motion

Biological motion is the way living things (like people and animals) move. Have you ever noticed how people and animals move differently? Some animals hop, some walk on four legs, while others fly. Even different types of humans (like adults and babies) move in unique ways.

Scientists study biological motion to understand how animals and humans move, figure out how different parts of the body work together, and even make robots that move like real animals.

By studying biological motion, scientists can learn how to help people move better after an injury or teach robots how to walk or run more efficiently. It's like learning a secret code to understand how the body moves!
