About BoB

Biomechanics of Bodies’ – in short: BoB – can analyze internal body loadings, energy expenditure, reaction force, joint contact force, and more. However, to round off effective analysis, BoB also requires Xsens motion data. BoB includes the following features:

  • Supports MVNX, BVH, CSV, C3D, TXT, motion capture files from Xsens Analyze (Link, Awinda)

  • BoB can calculate point position/velocity/acceleration, orientations and trajectories, body energy/power, velocity vectors, joint angles, ROM, joint torques, joint contact forces, GRF, muscle forces, lengths, contraction rates, and energy/power

Why use BoB?

  • Easy to learn use with a short learning curve

  • Available in many languages

  • Online video tutorials are available

  • Multi-person setups

  • 3D graphics with a lot of visualization options

  • Validated through publications in academic journeys

  • Can show synchronized videos and EMG

  • MATLAB functionalities offer a lot of freedom
