3D Model Creation

In this section, we will learn about 3D models and how both optical and electromagnetic 3D motion analysis systems create them. You will be introduced to the golfers we will be analyzing using both systems, and get to see each step of the 3D model creation process from initial system set-up through data collection with the golfers. 

Upon completion of this lesson, you will be able to:

• Explain what a 3D model is as it relates to golf swing analysis 
• Describe the room calibration process for an optical system
• Summarize the data collection process when recording a golf swing using an optical system
• Describe system calibration when using an electromagnetic system
• Describe sensor setup and importance of anatomical digitizing when using an electromagnetic system
• Summarize the data collection process when recording a golf swing using an electromagnetic system
• Compare/contrast optical and magnet systems
