A major challenge facing the rehabilitation field is the determination of relationships between impairments, functional limitations and disabilities. Biomechanical movement analysis is a key tool for understanding these relationships, and for providing quantitative objective measures of patient status and treatment outcomes. The objective of the proposed research is the enhancement (through advanced visualization and automation techniques) and commercialization of proven movement analysis analytical techniques developed at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The software package will include the following: an enhanced C3D file format; a Pre-processor module for automated signal processing and event identification and range labeling; a Model Builder module for creating custom biomechanical models (including assistive devices); a Report Builder for designing report formats; and an Analysis Engine for performing six degree- of-freedom inverse dynamics and other analyses. The result will be a complete rehabilitation focused movement analysis software package (Visual3D) that runs on a personal computer (PC) and can be used by rehabilitation researchers, clinicians, and educators working in a wide range of sub-specialties and research areas. In Phase III we will produce the commercial version of the software. We will establish licensing agreements and a marketing strategy. PROPOSED COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS: There exists a dearth of motion analysis application software capable of meeting the needs of rehabilitation research and patient care professionals. The vast majority of existing tools are platform dependent, custom built, task specific, and/or nor supported programs. Visual3D will be a relatively low cost program capable of analyzing data from any type of target base movement analysis system, and it will run on standard personal computers. Several companies have expressed a sincere interest in obtaining non- exclusive rights to market Visual3D with their motion capture systems. Therefore, the infiltration of this product into new and existing facilities and educational settings worldwide seems highly likely.

康复领域面临的一个主要挑战是确定损伤、功能限制和残疾之间的关系。生物力学运动分析是理解这些关系的关键工具，并为患者状态和治疗结果提供定量客观测量。拟议研究的目标是增强（通过先进的可视化和自动化技术）和商业化由美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）开发的经过验证的运动分析分析技术。该软件包将包括以下内容：增强的C3D文件格式；用于自动信号处理和事件识别及范围标记的预处理器模块；用于创建自定义生物力学模型（包括辅助设备）的模型生成器模块；用于设计报表格式的报表生成器；以及用于执行六自由度逆动力学和其他分析的分析引擎。结果将是一个完整的以康复为重点的运动分析软件包（Visual3D），它可以在个人电脑（PC）上运行，可以被康复研究人员、临床医生和在广泛的子专业和研究领域工作的教育工作者使用。在第三阶段，我们将生产该软件的商业版本。我们将制定许可协议和营销策略。建议的商业应用：目前缺乏能够满足康复研究和患者护理专业人员需求的运动分析应用软件。绝大多数现有工具都是平台相关的、自定义构建的、特定于任务的和/或不受支持的程序。Visual3D将是一个成本相对较低的程序，能够分析来自任何类型的目标基地运动分析系统的数据，它将在标准的个人计算机上运行。有几家公司表示有兴趣获得Visual3D的非排他权。因此，该产品极有可能渗透到全球新的和现有的设施和教育环境中。
