Obtain informed consent

Record subject details

Insure that there are no contraindications for the patient completing the data collection This may include data collection done via questionnaires or measurements If data collection includes patient questionnaires check to make sure that they have been completed correctly Apply markers/IMUs/EMGs as per experimental protocol

Take a set of digital pictures of the subject for post-hoc review of the marker placement. Record static calibration trial

Ensure all markers are visible Verify recorded marker set

Verify recorded marker set by launching Visual3D, creating model, and applying model template appropriate for the protocol Remove anatomical markers

If necessary, remove anatomical markers not needed for tracking in motion trials Set the software system to broadcast the data

Each manufacturer has their own method of turning on the broadcasting option in their software Check your software/hardware system's user's manual for more information
