pyc3dtools 0.1.1

C3Dtools API package - Read c3d files

pyc3dtools

This is python package that you can use it to read your c3d file. Actually, this is an C3Dtools.com API. The C3Dtools.com is a free web-based biomechanical toolbox. On C3Dtools.com you can :

    - Lower Body Inverse Kinematic - Plug-in Gait Model NEW
    - Convert C3D file to ASCII and create .TRC and .MOT that is compatible with the Opensim
    - Convert Xsens IMU sensors data to .sto to use in Opensim(Opensens)
    - Detect Gait events based on kinematic data
    - Calculate spatiotemporal gait parameters based on kinematic data
    - Apply Butterworth low-pass and high-pass digital filtering
    - Free C3D files repository
    - Trim C3D file   

Install

pip install pyc3dtools

Usage

First of all, create an account (Register) and then log in to your account, you can find the API token on the home page

and then import pyc3dtools package

import pyc3dtools

Finally pass the API token and your file path to the readC3D function as an input,

c3d =  pyc3dtools.readC3D(TOKEN,'TYPE-2.C3D')

Get data

1.Header section

Number_of_Markers = c3d['Header']['Number_of_Points']
First_Frame = c3d['Header']['first_frame']
Last_Frame = c3d['Header']['last_frame']
Video_Sampling_Rate = c3d['Header']['Video_Frame_Rate']
Number_of_Analog_Channels = c3d['Header']['Analog_number_channel']
Analog_Sample_Rate = c3d['Header']['Analog_Frame_Rate']
Analog_sample_per_video_frame = c3d['Header']['Analog_sample_per_Frame']

2.Marker & Analog Labels

Markers_Label = c3d['Markers Label']
Analog_Label = c3d['Analog Label']

3. Markers

### c3d['Markers'][frame][marker][:3]

p1 = c3d['Markers'][0][0][:3] # Get the position of the first marker (x,y,z) in the first frame 
p2 = c3d['Markers'][100][0][:3] # Get the position of the first marker (x,y,z) in the 100th frame
p3 = c3d['Markers'][100][1][:3] # Get the position of the second marker (x,y,z) in the 100th frame

5. Units and Coordinate System

Units = c3d['Units']
coordinate_System = c3d['Coordinate system'] #[X_SCREEN, Y_SCREEN]

6. ForcePlate Type 2,3,4,5

### c3d['ForcePlate'][Plate Number]['FZ'][Frame][Analog Frame per Video Frame]

Number_Of_Forceplates = len(result['ForcePlate'])
Force = c3d['ForcePlate'][0]['FX'][100] ,c3d['ForcePlate'][0]['FY'][100],c3d['ForcePlate'][0]['FZ'][100] 
Force = c3d['ForcePlate'][0]['FX'][100][10] ,c3d['ForcePlate'][0]['FY'][100][10],c3d['ForcePlate'][0]['FZ'][100][10] 
Corners c3d['ForcePlate'][0]['corners']
Origin = c3d['ForcePlate'][0]['Origin']

### c3d['ForcePlate'][Plate Number]['COP'][Frame][X|Y|Z][Frame][Analog Frame per Video Frame]
Xcop_frame_50_1 = c3d['ForcePlate'][0]['COP'][50][0][1]
Ycop_frame_50_1 = c3d['ForcePlate'][0]['COP'][50][1][1]
Zcop_frame_50_1 = c3d['ForcePlate'][0]['COP'][50][2][1]
