Creating or editting .mot file for an input

Post by In Bae Chung » Mon Feb 11, 2019 2:34 am

Hi, I'm really new to OpenSIM, and I could definitely use some help.
For my project, before I actually get some real data from experiments using sensors, I wanted to see if OpenSIM can give different outputs & plots when I slightly change the posture in a certain way. In order to do so, is it possible to edit an existing .mot file or create one to use as an input?
I know that .mot needs to be processed in Matlab or other packages that converts C3D files, but I want to simply test some postures in OpenSIM without having to deal with sensors now.

Motion files are very simple to work with. You can find more details here:

or try to open one of the available files that come with the OpenSim installation (model folder).
