Getting Data in trc format

Post by Maha Abbassi » Wed Jun 02, 2010 2:13 am

Hi,

I'm a student in a French engineering school. I'm using OpenSim during my research internship (working on the upper limb).

I'm facing a problem putting the data in the right format for openSim, I have the coordinates (.dat file for each) for each marker (I got the data using CodaMotion). I don't quite see how to use the matlab code or what it takes as an entry. Are there any tutorials ?
Can Opensim take Excel files instead?

Thank you very much.

Maha.
