Figure 49: Set position menu during contact point editing
The SD slider sets the standard deviation, which is an indication of how much the aiding point can be
trusted in combination with the computed position of the MVN Fusion Engine. This option can also be
used creatively for example to create a “soft” landing on a mattress. With the ‘Force no contactsoptions,
no other contacts will be detected during the selected frames. The contact bar will show a dot in the
center of the edited frame and mark all other contact points dark. The ‘Absolute’ option completely
overrules the computed position of the MVN Fusion Engine. The contact bar will show a ‘P’ at the
selected frame. After editing the co-ordinates, click the reprocess button.
Always work chronologically when setting positions of contact points, since an edited position at frame
k will influence the position at frame k+1 and further.
