Visual3D Movement Analysis Software Features

Welcome to Visual3D™, the most advanced 3D analysis software available for biomechanical motion analysis (kinematics and kinetics). Proven in scientific and clinical research labs world-wide, Visual3D™ is the world's leading software solution for rigorous and accurate 3D motion analysis.

Visual3D™ can process data from nearly any type of motion capture system using the industry standard C3D format. It also processes any synchronized analog signals such as force platforms, load cells, instrumented treadmills, and EMG.

Visual3D™ computes the biomechanics based on Newtonian dynamics, and can do it in real-time.

Visual3D™ has been proven in multiple fields such as:

 

Visual3D™ supplements, and is independent of, the data collection hardware and software used to create the 3D data files. By accommodating different laboratory coordinate systems, Visual3D software allows the user to interpret the data in the traditional format of the lab or clinic, but then reanalyzes the data automatically and presents it in a different coordinate system (e.g., a format defined by a standards committee such as that of the International Society of Biomechanics; Wu et. al., 2002). Visual3D incorporates advanced visualization techniques for animating the data including the ability to visualize non-spatial data such as EMG or net joint moments by rendering objects in the animation viewer whose color is based on the signal value at any frame.

Key Features

 

Visual3D runs on Microsoft Windows (or a Virtual Machine such as VMware or Parallels on an Apple OSX) and supports most Motion Capture systems directly.

Video camera results must first be processed and target-based motion data coordinates translated into C3D format.

 Motion Capture Systems supported include
