How to obtain the osim file?

[Xianjin111]

Thank you very much for your perfect work. I'm new to this field, so I want to ask some basic questions. How to obtain the visualization like the gif? When I run the start.bat on windows, it said that I need to drag the .osim file. I know the .osim file is used for OpenSim, but is there any ready-made .osim file for visualization? In details, How to obtain the osim file by ourselves?

Thank you very much.

The gif can for example be captured with screen capturing during the visualization.

For the first tests, it is best to use the data we used in our BASH paper. The data is available as supplementary dataset of a previous paper. Download the data and then use the respective files like the following for start.bat:

• .osim file: runMaD_Scaled.osim
• scale file: Simply skip it by pressing enter
• .mot file: Running_Sim_Kinem.mot
• .sto file: Running_Sim_MusFor.sto
• frames: Simply skip it by pressing enter
• Baseline-Model directory: ./data/baselineModel

In general, BASH offers only the visualization of a motion which was prior recorded or simulated and which is therefore available in OpenSim format. Hence, you should already have an .osim file before going to the visualization.
