New Biomechanics of the Musculoskeletal System Course
Hope you have all had a great year! I have enjoyed getting to know many of you better, and have greatly appreciated your feedback!
Thanks to many conversations with you, we have developed a new course at BassettBiomechanics.com focused on the basics of setting up and using a motion capture system in a biomechanics lab. It has been designed for anyone that is relatively new to the field, so great for new students of any level, professors, physical therapists, and anyone getting into biomechanics!
The course includes a copy of Visual3D at no extra charge valid till July 31st 2016 since we will be using this powerful software to illustrate key principles of biomechanics!
It will be split into two main parts:
Part 1: Practical Motion Capture Training (January 19 - January 29)
Video lectures with practical tips to get the best results
• How to set up, position, and calibrate the camera system
• How to apply lower-body and upper-body marker sets
• How to evaluate the strengths of different marker sets
• How to acquire motion capture data
• How to verify data was collected correctly
• How to export the data for processing
• How to troubleshoot basic motion capture issues
Part 2: Applied Biomechanics Training (February 1 - May 6)
Video lectures using Visual3D to illustrate principles of biomechanics
• A brief history of motion capture biomechanics
• The key principles of biomechanics
• Applying the scientific theory in a practical way
• Techniques for measuring joint movements
• What gait analysis is and how to do it
• Using biomechanics in sport performance
• Processing motion capture data
• Analyzing the processed data
• Creating a report from the data analysis
For more information please visit: http://bassettbiomechanics.com/musculoskeletal-1/
For those that have gone through our previous courses, this is all new material. Of course, some of the getting started in Visual3D will be familiar to you, but it is a completely new course!
We hope to see you online for this new course and a great deal on Visual3D!
