Mechanical drawings and calibration code for a custom built staircase to patient biomechanics

This repository accompanies a preprint (doi: , and hopefully one day a peer-reviewed manuscript) that describes the steps we took to design, fabricated, calibrate and validate a costume built staircase that we then integrated into a clinical gait analysis test session. This repository has 4 sub-directories that each provide specific information neccesary to recreate our staircase or build your own.

1. matlab.zip - this archived folder has 3 subfolders. i) calibrate_validate, ii) transfer_mocap_2_osim, and iii) batch_osim. This archived folder also has a readme. please read it. I cannot provide any warranty on this software but am happy to help reasonable requests. My contact info is in the readme. Also - check out my github < github.com/joshrbaxter > for updated code

2. stairs_drawings.zip - this archived folder has the bill of materials, mechanical drawings, and a cute 3D PDF.

3. trc_forces.zip - this folder has the motion capture data exported from Motion Analysis's Cortex software (version 7). 

4. osim.zip - this folder contains all of the files required to run the opensim model along with all of the output files from inverse dynamics and inverse kinematics. these files were all generated from matlab routines provided in the matlab.zip folder.
