Expansion to Kistler (type 1 FP) and/or BTS

Post by Stefan Lambrecht » Wed Nov 16, 2011 3:30 am

Hi,

I was wondering if someone already made an expansion for this toolbox to "tweak" it for use with Kistler forceplaces (piezoelectric sensors; type 1 FP) and/or a BTS motion capture system and software?

If so, would you be willing to share this (I will gladly refer to your article or effort in publications)?

Hi Stefan,

Although you cannot directly extract from a type 1 FP, if you have Vicon Nexus (or perhaps other software can also do it), is load the C3D file in and re-save it. Vicon Nexus also only deals with type 2 FP when it saves a C3D file, but if upon loading other FP types, will automatically convert the FP data into a type 2 plate.

Hope that helps,

Tim
