When your variable scheme is finished, you can use it to update VSK with your new joint centers and segment locations.
To update a VSK with the variable scheme:
- In Nexus, create a subject in the normal way (ie, from a labeling template VST file), and enter the required subject measurements.
Capture or load a static trial, and label it, either by using the Autolabel Static Frame function, or manually.
It is NOT necessary to run the other operations that scale/calibrate the subject.- When the static trial has been correctly labeled, save the trial by clicking the Save button, so that both the subject's VSK and the C3D are saved.
- In ProCalc 1.3 or later, load the trial, then on the Input Parameters tab and the Variables tab, select the scheme that you want to use to update the VSK.
- On the Data Management tab, click the Update VSK button.
- Review and accept any prompts that are displayed.
When the operation starts, information about the progress is output to ProCalc's log. - In Nexus, do one of the following:
- Nexus 2.9 and later: Right-click the subject and select Refresh Subject then From VSK.
or - Earlier versions of Nexus: Exit the session and open the session again (or re-start Nexus).
- Nexus 2.9 and later: Right-click the subject and select Refresh Subject then From VSK.
- In the Subject Viewer, make sure that the subject is updated.
You can now use the updated VSK to:
- Label dynamic trials.
- Generate kinematics in real time or offline.
To generate the VSK kinematics, either click the Nexus KinFit button or run the Kinemetic Fit pipeline.
