Rigidbody c3d File

Hi everybody,

I have a question, is it possible in Motive to export the angles and the coordinates of the rigid body as well? I have a routine which I found on the internet that is called readC3D (using MATLAB) , but this gives me only the x,y,z coordinates of the markers, but not of the rigidbody itself. In the case if it were possible to do that, how can i access them?

Thanks in advance :)

Hi there,

The C3D format includes support for marker data only (position), not orientation.

Using Motive, you can export to CSV, which is a plain text comma separated format that contains both marker position data and orientation data.

hope this helps,

Morgan
