Getting the model to squat

This model adopts a generic MSKM that allows a large range of motion of the knee and hip joints to compute medial and lateral tibiofemoral contact forces (TFCF) during gait and squat tasks.

Getting the model to squat

Hi Danilo and Bruno,

I was just reaching out to ask how you and your team managed to get the gaitmodel2392 to mimic a natural squatting motion. When I try to manipulate the motion file I am only able to get the model to tuck the knees up rather than have the body squat down. When I try to play with the pelvis_ty coordinate, the entire model moves down (feet included). Love to hear how you solved these problems.

Best,

Jason

Hi Jason,

That sounds as an IK problem.
Happy to assist you on that.
Feel free to email me directly.

Best,
