Visual3D Basics Unit 8 – Chapter 4 – Processing EMG data
Electromyography, or EMG, is also quite common to find among the hardware found in biomechanics labs. However, learning how to use EMG data is not always covered. In this chapter, we show an example of processing steps that could be performed on EMG data.
Visual3D Basics Unit 7 – Chapter 2 – Pipelines for graphs
As we report data, we often find that we need additional biomechanical parameters and events in order to properly communicate the data. In this chapter, we show you how to use the pipeline to assign tags to files, switch active files, and find events from graph minimums.
Visual3D Basics Unit 4 – Chapter 6 – Reporting from the pipeline
The final chapter of this unit is dedicated to automatically generating a report from the pipeline. We previously showed you how to create a biomechanical report in Unit 3, and now we show you how to use it as part of your automation.
Visual3D Basics Unit 4 – Chapter 5 – Introduction to Notepad++
In this chapter, we introduce the use of a text editor that will greatly assist in your pipeline design. We show some tips and tricks to easily edit the pipelines you create in Visual3D to make development more efficient, and easier to annotate for later review.
Visual3D Basics Unit 4 – Chapter 4 – Using the pipeline to perform calculations
Beyond saving time, processing your data and performing calculations should be done in the same way for every data set in a project. Using a pipeline ensures that the series of calculations is done in the same way every time as it does not depend on user input. In this chapter, we show you how to set up the processing steps and how to perform biomechanical calculations in an automated way.
Visual3D Basics Unit 4 – Chapter 3 – Applying a biomechanical model from the pipeline
As we start the biomechanics side part of the automation, our focus is to reduce the number of clicks necessary. From opening a static trial to applying a biomechanical model and customizing it to a subject’s height and mass before assigning it to the dynamic motion trials, in this chapter, we show you some ways to design an efficient pipeline.
Visual3D Basics Unit 4 – Chapter 2 – Loading files from the pipeline
Opening files can be a tedious task, and has little to no scientific significance. However, automating the loading of data not only saves time, but it can also prevent user error. In this chapter, we show you how to start designing your pipeline by explaining how to use commands to open the various files in a folder.
Visual3D Basics Unit 4 – Chapter 1 – What is a pipeline?
Automation is the key to setting up an effective biomechanics lab. In this unit of Visual3D Basics, we show you how to design a pipeline that automatically performs all the steps in the previous 3 units. We show you how to load files, build models, perform calculations, and report data by creating your own script.
