How to use max and min events
When processing non-standard biomechanical motions, it is necessary to establish reference points in your data. Using max and min events you can identify peaks and valleys in your signals.
Event
Pipeline commands: Event Maximum and Minimum
A more general way to identify peaks and valleys in your data is to use the Event Maximum and Event Minimum pipeline commands. Although similar, these commands give more options compared to the Global Event Maximum and Minimum methods. This tutorial will show you how to use these commands, and set them up correctly.
Pipeline commands: Event Global maximum and minimum
In order to obtain full control of your data, identifying events gives you a way to refer to points in the acquired motion and potentially a way to time normalize as well. Finding the global maximum or minimum of a signal can be a very useful tool to identify specific events. In this tutorial, we show you how to use the dedicated pipeline commands for event global maximum and minimum.
Why use Events?
Categorizing sections of your data is a key to be able to analyze it, and be able to compare one trial to another, even across subjects. In this tutorial, we discuss what events are, why use them, and how to view them in Visual3D.
Pipeline commands: Automatic Gait Events
Establishing timing parameters for biomechanics trials allows you to compare data. One of the most common types of motion to analyze is gait, and in this tutorial we focus on how to use the automatic gait events pipeline command.
Gait Events
Understanding the sequence of how human locomotion occurs is an important part of biomechanics. In this tutorial, we discuss various gait events that define the phases of normal walking.
Events
Timing is key to understanding biomechanics. Unfortunately, we cannot rely on subjects to repeat motions at the exact same speed in every trial, or to start at a consistent interval after we start capturing their data. This is why it is so important to understand events and how to use them.
