Translations:C3D Format/5/en

The C3D file typically consists to 3 sections; a Header Section, a Parameter Section, and a Data Section containing ANALOG (1 DOF) and POINT (3 DOF) data.

Header

Parameter

Data

The Header block contains a summary of the data storage, including pointers to the start of the Parameter and Data blocks.
The Parameter section defines the way the data is interpreted; for example, the Force Platform Parameters. Visual3D allows the user to modify these parameters in the file.
The Data block contains the actual data itself. It is possible to modify the data that was stored in the C3D file, but we frown upon this idea, so it is very difficult to do this in Visual3D.
