Observation dictionary
The observation at each step is a dictionary with following keys:
| body_pos | Positions of body parts along (X,Y,Z) |
| body_pos_rot | Rotations of body parts along (X,Y,Z) |
| body_vel | Velocities of body parts along (X,Y,Z) |
| body_vel_rot | Rotational velocities of body parts along (X,Y,Z) |
| body_acc | Accelerations of body parts along (X,Y,Z) |
| body_acc_rot | Rotational accelerations of body parts along (X,Y,Z) |
| joint_pos | Positions of joints |
| joint_vel | Velocities of joints |
| joint_acc | Accelerations of joints |
| muscles | Forces acting on body parts |
| forces | Forces acting on body parts |
| misc | Forces acting on body parts |
| markers | Empty for this model |
Each element is a dictionary.
Body parts
The model has following bodies
| calcn_l | Left calcaneus |
| talus_l | Left talus |
| tibia_l | Left tibia |
| toes_l | Left toes |
| femur_l | Left femur |
| femur_r | Right femur |
| head | Head |
| pelvis | Pelvis |
| torso | Torso |
| pros_foot_r | Prosthetic foot |
| pros_tibia_r | Prosthetic tibia |
Each element is a vector. Elements corresponding to each transational position, velocity, and acceleration is order as [x,y,z]. Rotational position, velocity, and acceleration vectors correspond to rotations along X, Y, and Z.
Joints
The model has following joints
| name | length | description |
| ankle_l | 1 | Left ankle flexion |
| ankle_r | 1 | Right ankle flexion |
| back | 1 | Back flexion |
| ground_pelvis | 6 | translation (x,y,z) and rotation along x, y, and z |
| hip_l | 3 | Hip flexion, abduction, and rotation |
| hip_r | 3 | Hip flexion, abduction, and rotation |
| knee_l | 1 | Left knee flexion |
| knee_r | 1 | Right knee flexion |
Extra joints back_0, mtp_l, subtalar_l appear in the dictionary for consistency but they cannot move.
