Your current version of Peak Motus will allow you to display and animate
your force vectors on the stick figure display. All you have to do is chec=

Dear Mary!
Here is a short description of the Vifor System, a system for
superposition of force vectors in real time on video recordings (in the
sagittal and frontal projection simultaneously):
Vifor (Video Force) is a system for analysis of patterns of movement and
loads in the lower extremities during walking. It has primarily been
developed for gait analysis, but can also be used in static situations.
The fundamental function of the system is to mark on video pictures the
ground reaction forces between foot and surface that successively act on
the walking patient. The sequence is automatically recorded by a
computer-controlled video cassette recorder. By studying the tape
recording of the sequence, an idea can be obtained very quickly as to
what forces are acting in the different parts of the leg. In this way it
is possible to study how a leg prosthesis works, and to see, for
example, how the foot is being used during different parts of a step.
The system can also be used to evaluate various changes in the lower
extremities, such as gait changes after surgery and effects of training
programmes.
The system has been developed on the basis of a couple of fundamental
principles:
*=09In order to obtain a correct notion of the load situation in a given
part of a leg, it is necessary to record simultaneously both the pattern
of movement and the external forces acting on the leg.
*=09In order for a system of this kind to truly be a useful tool other
than in pure research projects, it must be designed so that the costs,
time and trouble associated with its use are perceived as reasonable in
relation to the benefits obtained.
=20
Based on these principles, a system has been developed with the
additional requirement that its use shall involve as few manual
operations as possible. The operator shall instead be free to devote
most of his attention to the patient. Because the results are presented
in visual form on a videotape recording, it is also very easy to
understand what is happening, and the patient can participate in
studying the videotape recordings.
The main components in Vifor are a force plate installed in the floor
for measuring the forces between the foot and the surface, video cameras
and a video cassette recorder (VCR) for recording the pattern of
movement, a personal computer for processing the force data, plotting
ground reaction forces in video format and controlling the VCR, and a
video mixer for superimposing information from the video cameras onto
the computer images. In addition, the system includes photocells for
recording the walking speed and a video copier to furnish hard copies of
selected video images.
=20
Technical details
The system consist of a personal computer to which the following items
are connected: a force plate, a video graphics card, 2 video cameras, 2
photo cells, a video mixer, a video hard copy unit, a video cassette
recorder and a video monitor.=20
The key point from a technical point of view is the synchronisation
between force and video data. This is obtained in the Vifor system by
using one of the video cameras (or the video graphics card) as a master
sync source, which controls the second video camera and the force plate
sampling. The force vectors are drawn in real time onto the video images
(both sagittal and frontal planes), and this is useless unless it is
certified that the force data are measured almost simultaneously with
the video image generation. In the present system there is a 13 ms delay
between the force plate sampling and video image generation. A short
delay is necessary, otherwise the force information would not be
available for drawing force vectors onto the video images in real time.
However, if this delay is too long, or if there is no synchronisation
between force plate sampling and video image generation then the body
can move during the time from force data collection to video image
generation. This might result in totally erroneous estimation of the
distance between the force vector and the body joints. Hereby the
calculated joint moments can be quite misleading.

Subject: Digivec System for GRF and Video superimposition
Hello there Mary,
My name's Frederik CEI and I'm the US Representative for B|T|S products. I
read your request from Biomech and thought I'd tell you a little about the
DIGIVEC system.
This system allows you to superimpose up to three different video views wit=

the GRF coming from a Kistler, AMTI or Bertec platform. The information is
recorded and displayed in REALTIME, and doesn't require a data reduction st=
ep
to obtain the information. The system is great for research due to its quic=
k
turn around of information, and ideal as an educational tool.
I have attached a file describing the system. I included some low resolutio=
n
video images to give you an idea of the three different views that are
possible. This particular example uses a Kistler Force plate with a glass t=
op
to assist in viewing the C.O.P. progression during a gait cycle. Other
application uses are sports related.

Subject: GRF-vector systems
Being the Research and Development department of a Rehabilitation
Center (het Roessingh, Enschede, the Netherlands) with a special
interest in movement analysis, we have developed a budget-friendly,
real-time ground reaction force (GRF) visualisation system a few
years ago. We use this system daily in our clinical service (e.g.
movement analysis in CP children) as well as in a number of research
projects.
The system superimposes the GRF-vector meausured by a 3D force
platform on the video image which is taken of the subject with an
ordinary commercial available video camera. The resulting picture can
be recorded on video tape which allows frame-by frame replay
afterwards. Since the projection of the GRF vector on the video-image
is done in real-time, the system can also be used in situations in
which direct feedback from the subject is desired (double tasks,
stability in standing, etc.). The system is very easy to operate.
Subjects can be recorded from both lateral and frontal side.
In the beginning of next year, we hope to have the system available
for others via a partner. Then we will introduce it as part of another
system: the VisionPlus system. The VisionPlus system can be regarded
as a multi media (movement analysis) PC. It is a dedicated PC which
contains both the hard and software to realise a number of 'basic'
applications which can be used in (clinical) movement analysis:
The basic applications are:
1. VIVEC II: If a force plate (and amplifier), an ordinary videocamera
and an ordinary VCR and/or television screen will be connected to the
VisionPlus system, it is possible to combine the GRF-vektor with a
video-image as explained above. 2. Myo-vision: If an EMG amplifier, an
ordinary videocamera and an ordinary VCR and/or television screen will
be connected to the VisionPlus system, it is possible to superimpose
muscle activation patterns of (up to 8) muscles on the video image of
a subject. 3. DualView: If 2 videocameras, a VCR and/or a television
screen will be connected to the VisionPlus system, it is possible to
show and record the subject from 2 views (e.g. frontal and lateral)
simultaniously.
Basic applications can be combined into more =91advanced=92 applications
by just connecting the necessary additional equipment (EMG, Force) to
the VisionPlus system. As such it is possible to gradualy extend the
VisionPlus system starting with one of the above explained 'basic'
applications and ending at a VisionPlus system which combines both the
GRF-vector of a subject, his/her (up to 8) muscle activation
patterns, and both the lateral and frontal view in one single video
image simultaniously and store this on a video tape.
Today I will fax you some brochures concerning the VIVEC II
application as well as the muscle activation patterns application.
I hope I have given you the desired information.
Please do not hesitate to call, fax or mail us if you have any
questions. Best regards,
