Luke is a Vice Chancellor’s Research Fellow and coordinates the ECU Motion Capture Studio at the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts.

Background

Dr Hopper’s research is centered around the scientific and creative analyses of human movement. Luke’s work in the ECU Motion Capture studio originated by applying advanced biomechanical methods to injury prevention in dance and has expanded to incorporate animation and creative motion capture performance leveraging modern 3D game engines. Luke’s postgraduate research pioneered 3D motion capture methods for the biomechanical analyses of dance. This applied research has continuously involved collaboration with industry partners including Harlequin Dance Floors and the Birmingham Royal Ballet. Luke is a 2019 Churchill Fellow and has an international professional network spanning the arts and sciences.

The multi-disciplinary nature of Luke’s work has engaged with health, engineering and the creative arts. A founder of the Simulation and Immersive Digital Technology Group at ECU, Luke has extensive experience working with industry partners and across multiple academic domains. This work addresses real world problems based upon existing academic knowledge and the subsequent translation of high-quality research into new evidence.
