I need type of marker setting in my dissertation that must not have marker on the second metatarsal, so I opt to utilize the Cleveland marker setting that is placing one single marker on the each of the fifth metatarsal of the foot, with clusters in the middle part of limb. Also, I sent many Emails to the Vicon support for resolving such problem. Thanks to their prompt and vivid reply, they did not have such a template for this issue; however they stated that there are some laboratories over the world which have Vicon cameras and used the Cleveland template on their researches. They referred me to an Article that had utilized this marker placement on their research propose. The title of that article is:
A study of the reproducibility of the marker application of the Cleveland Clinic Marker Set including the Plug-In Gait Upper Body Model in clinical gait analysis.
I Email to their university departments for the assist but no reply is emerging yet and I have little time for dissolving such an obstacle. So I put question over here, perhaps the solution will be found.
Dear Mohsen Alighanbari,
I just have seen your question. We have conduct this study to validate the use of this model. The study was accomplished by a master student. The whole study is in German. I am not sure if this is suitable for you. Do you need further information about that?
kind regards

Dear Mr. Andreas Kranzl
thanks a lot for your reply, and I am sorry for my late answer which I am posting here.
my research were absolutely done by the plug in gate marker placement and I was using soft marker for this burgeon. but other research area in our lab need this type of marker placement as well. so when we created a new marker placement for the software and used it for research proposes we faced a lot of problems like when we exported the data to plugin gate software for more analysis there was many error reported by the software and we could not gain the best results we need, or when we were piplining the data on the nexus software some of the segments and articulation angular velocity and moments wasn't accurate and precise. so I post this question on this site that other researchers who done it before send me this type of marker placement or the approach of generating this model or the other self created models on the software.
so because your expertise on this project would you send me a brief guidance for this issue and the problems you were facing and perhaps the resolving approaches you were performed.
thanks a lot for your help and tolerance.
with best regards.

Dear Mohsen Alighanbari,
we first started to use the Cleveland Marker Set when we had am MAC System. The markerset was fully supported by the system and we had just to use it. For 5 years we switched to a VICON system and one requirement to buy the system was to be able to use the Cleveland Marker Set.
So at the moment we use the Model in combination with Budy Builder. You have to have Body Builder to use the model. The work on the model was done mostly be the company prophysics from Switzerland. So we knwo the code but mosty coding work was done by the company. If you need further informations or want to use our code, please write me a personal e-mail. ([email protected]).
kind regards
Andreas Kranzl
