How to animate a VRML model with data from USB 6008

[dicaranx2]

Hello, I'm developing a project to analize the human walking pattern and I want to know if it possible to animate a VRML model in the front panel with the data from a NI USB 6008 that acquire de angle of each joint of the leg. I need to animate the model at closely the same time that the real person is walking. I have read on other forums about DIAdem INSIGHT (I downloaded the free demo version) but the scenes works with data files. I have worked with other virtual reality tools, for example the one in Matlab, and there is possible to animate each joint of the model with transformations commands, but the complete development of the application require more time for coding.

Is this possible in LabView, How can I accomplish this task with NI software ??

Thanks a lot,

Hi,

Where are you from? Do you speak Spanish? We can talk in Spanish. Look, the acquisition board USB 6008 is a very simple DAQ board and you should make sure its features match your need (take a look on the kind of channels it has, the sample rate, resolution, number of channels, etc). If it matches your need, you can develop your application in LabVIEW. You can acquire the data and correlate them with a model designed in SolidWorks, for example.

Hola Silvia, gracias por tu respuesta. Respecto a la USB 6008, si tengo claro las facilidades y características del hardware pues como te comento la aplciación de adquisicion de señales es sencilla con ella, pero mi pregunta es específicamente en la parte del mundo virtual VRML, tu comentas la interacción con solidworks, mi pregunta es si en un solo panel frontal de la aplicación se pueda visualizar el entorno virtual sin necesidad de otro software, simplemente modificando desde labview las propiedades del archivo .WRL que se desea animar .

Gracias
