This simulator visually steps through the full gait cycle, showing how stance and swing phases, their sub-phases, and double-support periods unfold across a normalized 0 to 100 percent timeline.
Scrub or play through the gait cycle timeline to watch each sub-phase highlight in sequence, and compare stance versus swing timing as the walking foot moves from heel strike to toe-off and back to heel strike.
A timeline slider and play button let you step through or animate the normalized gait cycle from 0 to 100 percent.
Double support, the brief window when both feet touch the ground at once, is the single biomechanical feature that disappears when walking transitions into running.
