In the land of 2D art, the process is often quite different. It’s a pretty powerful way to perform animation and every single major 3D application implements IK (and FK – forward kinematics). IK is basically a fancy way of saying “move an end bone and the computer will calculate how all the other bones in the chain will respond” enabling you to animate by positioning the foot for example and the ankle, knee, and hip will rotate appropriately.

Animations are generally defined by moving a series of bones controlling your mesh, which in turn are powered by a system called inverse kinematics. See our publications list for recent papers.One of the major advantages of working in 3D is once you have your character modeled and rigged, creating new animations is simply a matter of defining a series of poses on a timeline. We are currently using these models to study the use of an exosuit and variations in spine loading in the population, including effects of spine curvature and variability in loading in different activities, as well as how this relates to the risk of vertebral fractures in older adults. We have released a set of subject-specific models created for 250 individuals (125 men, 125 women, ages 41 - 90) from the Framingham Heart Study:

In a related project, these models have been adapted to create full body models for children and adolescents: For more information, see our paper describing model development and validation: The models were created and validated in OpenSim and may be used in Static Optimization analyses we have not verified use in Computed Muscle Control. The models are validated for estimations of spinal loading and trunk muscle tension against previously collected in-vivo measurement of intradiscal pressure, vertebral compression from telemeterized implants and trunk muscle EMG. In total the trunk models have 93 degrees-of-freedom, and 552 musculotendon actuators full body models have 111 degrees of freedom and 620 musculotendon actuators. The most recent releases include generic male and female models trunk models (v1.1 OpenSim 3.3 compatible), and generic male and female full body models (v2.0 OpenSim 4.x compatible) that incorporate lower extremities from the Gait2354 model ( ). Muscle measurements from in vivo computed tomography scans of the trunk were used to adjust the cross-sectional area (CSA) and position of the trunk muscles in the model to match a community-based sample of 125 men (generic male models) or 125 women (generic female models). Additional muscle groups were added, including the external and internal inter-costals, the thoracic multifidus, the lower portion of the trapezius, the serratus anterior, and the transversus abdominis. Major lumbar spine and abdominal muscle groups were incorporated from the previously developed OpenSim lumbar spine model ( ), and muscles attaching to the upper and mid-thorax were adapted from the neck musculoskeletal model ( ) and upper extremity model ( ). They also include a lumped head and neck body, and upper extremities. These models include a fully articulated thoracolumbar spine (T1 through L5), with 3 rotational degrees-of-freedom at each inter-vertebral joint, and ribcage (24 individual ribs and a sternum).
