Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Kinematic interpolation is an important tool in biomechanics. The purpose of this work is to describe a method for interpolating three-dimensional kinematic data, minimizing error while maintaining ease of calculation. This method uses cubic quaternion and hermite interpolation to fill gaps between kinematic data points. Data sets with a small number of samples were extracted from a larger data set and used to validate the technique. Two additional types of interpolation were applied and then compared to the cubic quaternion interpolation. Displacement errors below 2% using the cubic quaternion method were achieved using 4% of the total samples, representing a decrease in error over the other algorithms.
