kineticstoolkit_pushrimkinetics

Provide functions to process kinetic data from instrumented wheelchair wheels such as the SmartWheel, pictured below.

SmartWheel

The functions provided by this extension are:

  • read_smartwheel(filename): Read a file generated by the SmartWheel instrumented wheel.
  • apply_calibration(ts, gains, offsets, *, transducer, reference_frame): Calculate pushrim forces and moments based on raw channel values.
  • remove_offsets(ts, baseline_kinetics): Remove dynamic offsets in forces and moments.
  • calculate_velocity(ts): Calculate velocity based on wheel angle.
  • calculate_power(ts): Calculate power based on wheel velocity and moment.

This extension replaces the former ktk.pushrimkinetics module that is now being deprecated.
