Placing greater trochanter markers on model
Posted: Tue Jan 29, 2019 4:33 pm
Hello,
I am currently using the Rajagopal model for my analysis in OpenSim. It includes all the markers that were used in the experimental data collection except for three, the sacrum and left/right greater trochanter. I placed these markers on the generic model at estimated locations. However, these markers are the ones that seem to have the highest error during scaling, so I am wondering if the markers are not in the correct location.
My question is, are there any resources that state where these markers (particularly the GTR markers) should be placed on a model in relation to the ASIS markers? Or is there already a good estimate out there? I am fairly new to OpenSim and optoelectronic data collection, and the data I am using was captured by someone else.
I have attached images of the model with the markers placed in estimated locations and without any muscles visible.
