Summary:
Alternate Base Body

Detailed description
In OpenSim ground is always the reference coordinate system. In at least some versions of SIMM it was possible to make any of the rigid bodies the reference coordinate system and view motion relative to that segment. This functionality would be useful for examining relative motions that are small compared to the overall motion, but still important to understanding the kinematics. Can it be incorporated into OpenSim?
