Force Platform Location Template

L-shaped Calibration Frame equipped with four spherical reflective markers. A small bubble-level is located on each arm.

The Force Platform Location Template is used to set up the 3D motion capture system prior to recording human data.

Its L-shape allows it to be positioned on the reference corner of a force platform, and adjustment screws allow the device to be perfectly leveled as indicated by "leveling bubbles".

A series of reflective markers (spheres) at known positions on the device allow the motion capture video cameras to determine the precise location of each of the force platforms within the lab.
