 This tutorial demonstrates the process of merging Theia3D's output [[Visual3D:Documentation:C3D_Signal_Types:C3D_Format|C3D]] files and other C3D files. The typical scenario is to merge Theia3D's motion capture output and analog signals such as force platform recordings. This tutorial demonstrates the process of merging Theia3D's output [[Visual3D:Documentation:C3D_Signal_Types:C3D_Format|C3D]] files and other C3D files.
