Abstract
The OpenBiomechanics project is an initiative started by Driveline Baseball Research & Development, and provides the general public a marker-based motion capture data set of 100 pitchers and 98 hitters at different levels of competition [1].
The authors provide raw data without any reports or analysis, allowing the general public to use it as they see fit. While numerous articles provide in depth looks into the biomechanics of the baseball swing [2-4], there is a noticeable scarcity in articles that delve into biomechanical disparities between various levels of competition, such as contrasting differences between college and high school baseball players.
This tutorial is designed to demonstrate the use of Sift to analyze the variance in pelvic angular velocity in internal/external rotation between high Blast bat speeds [5] among college and high school baseball players.
Downloads and Relevant Links
Start by downloading the following two zip files.
Please note, these downloads contain a large amount of data. Building CMZs is a slow process, so if you want to speed it up to follow along with building CMZ portion of this tutorial cut the number of datasets under openbiomechanics-main down to 3-5 subjects.
If you want to skip the Build CMZ step of this tutorial and focus on the metadata applications, you can:
- download this pre-built CMZ workspace.
- download the C-Motion Specific Files.
