This script is explained in the Virtual Lab Direction of Progression tutorial. This script outlines Method 1.

Before running this script:

• A static trial must be loaded into the workspace
• A model template (with modified virtual lab) must be loaded into the workspace
• A dynamic trial must be loaded into the workspace

NOTE: A modified virtual lab follows the same outline as the Dynamic Virtual Lab, except instead of using the Lab_X landmark, the Dir_Prog_X landmark is used. An example of this model template can be found here.
