The group used a technique called the point light walker.
The point light walker research a great example of a research journey that goes from a statistical observation, through street-level investigations and the use of complex lab techniques, and then applies the hard won knowledge for good: showing how the vulnerable can take steps to reduce their appearance of vulnerability.

Traditional paradigms to study visual perception of bodies (using static presentation of a single-body posture or body part) or perception of biological motion (using point light walkers) suggested that the visual body areas EBA and FBA primarily process body shape, whereas STS primarily processes movement kinematics (Downing and Peelen 2011; Vangeneugden et al. 2014).
