NAME
proa2run - convert ProAnalyst export text file to runfile format
SYNOPSIS
proa2run
[-u units]
txtfile [runfile]
DESCRIPTION
Proa2run
converts an ASCII text file of comma-separated values, which has been exported
from the
ProAnalyst
motion capture software, into a runfile.
The
txtfile
specifies the name of the input file to be converted,
and the optional
runfile
argument specifies the output run file name.
If the
runfile
is not specified, proa2run uses the same basename as the specified
txtfile,
with the
.txt
or
.csv
suffix removed.
The specified txtfile will be analysed to find out the sampling rate
(i.e. frame rate) of the samples, as well as the contents of the columns
of data. Angle data will be expanded to two columns, to get both inside and
outside angles (360 - x), and both will be converted. Column headings will
be parsed and extended with alternate unit specifiers so the correct units
appear in the output in the analysis program.
The txtfile must have at least 3 columns, with the first column containing
the Index field (ignored), and the second one containing the Time field,
used to calculate the sampling rate. The remaining columns can be X, Y and
Angle fields in any order, and will be converted to waveforms in the runfile.
X and Y coordinates are assumed to be calibrated in
mm,
unless other units are specified via the
-u
option.
Angles are assumed to be in degrees.
