Can we measure center of mass vertical displacement

Hi
I am trying to calculate the center of mass excursion, i.e., center of mass (COM) vertical displacement during running. I have already used inverse dynamics to compute lower extremity joint kinetics and kinematics. Is there a method in Anybody to compute this quantity.

Hi @aravind and welcome to the forum!

We actually have a very easy way of computing the center of mass.
You can define a AnyKinCoM class which measures the center of mass of a collection of segments.

If you use the bodymodel from the AMMR there is already a center of mass property inside the HumanModel.BodyModel.Interface.CoM folder.

Best regards,
Bjørn
