Assessment of knee angles

New project for OpenCap, which is a new software package to estimate 3D human movement dynamics from smartphone videos. OpenCap strongly relies on OpenSim.

Assessment of knee angles

Post by Jesus Jimenez » Fri Feb 09, 2024 12:36 am

Hi,

I am interested on getting knee angles data. In the database for knee angles is only available knee_angle_r and knee_angle_r_beta. What do they mean? I would like to know flexion, abduction and rotation degrees if it is possible.

How can I get them?

Thank you in advance.

Greetings,
Jesus

Hi,

Our model only has flexion-extension, which is referred to as knee_angle_r/l.
knee_angle_r_beta is related to the patella, you can ignore it.
