The Katherine Steele and Jeff Reinbolt will lead a hand-on workshop at the 13th International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics (ICORR), on the University of Washington campus in Seattle, WA.
We invite all ICORR participants to take part in the 2-hour OpenSim Workshop on Wednesday, June 26th at 4:15pm. Workshops are included with full conference registration. This workshop will feature an overview of the OpenSim software and a hands-on team exercise. More information and workshop materials are below:
Preparation for the Workshop
No prior OpenSim experience is required. Interested participants should either bring a PC laptop with OpenSim 3.0.1 installed or be prepared to team up with another participant. To participate in the design challenge to create an active orthotic, participants should download the additional . Attendance is limited. To guarantee a seat, please arrive early.
Please direct any questions to Katherine Steele at kmsteele@uw.edu or Jeff Reinbolt at reinbolt@utk.edu.
Workshop Exercise
As an example, workshop participants will use a new Drop Landing Model included in OpenSim 3.0.1 to evaluate the design of an ankle-foot-orthosis to prevent ankle injuries during landing. Instructions for the exercise are available on the page: Simulation-Based Design to Prevent Ankle Injuries.
