Motion Capture Post-processing

This was our first opportunity to use the post-processing part of Cortex where the motion of the experimental markers can be linked together to produce usable data to be exported. First, markers have to be identified and given a name so they can be recognised by the software. Second, links have to be made between the virtual markers as they were during the motion capture tests. Third, a template was created were the links did not break. This was extended over a larger time frame by reconnecting the markers using the tools provided in the software.

This kinematic data and the results from the force plates were then exported to be used in Excel and OpenSim.
