[Opensim-announcement] Workshop on Simulating Human-Robot Interaction + Tips for Getting Started with OpenSim

[Joy P. Ku]

Register for OpenSim Workshop: Simulating and Optimizing Human-Robot Interaction Workshop
Dynamic Walking Conference, Pensacola, Florida
May 25, 2018
Registration Deadline: April 1, 2018

Join OpenSim team members Chris Dembia and Nick Bianco of Stanford University for an interactive tutorial highlighting the features of OpenSim that allow you to model and simulate human-robot interaction. The workshop will be held at the Dynamic Walking Conference<http://robots.ihmc.us/dynamicwalking2018/> and will consist of a 3-hour hands-on Matlab tutorial where you will learn to simulate a jumper model, increase jump height with an assistive device, and compete to maximize the jump height of the assisted jumper model.

OpenSim Community Efforts Highlighted in Model-Sharing Article
OpenSim team members Scott Delp, Jennifer Hicks, and Joy Ku contributed to the commentary "Perspectives on Sharing Models and Related Resources in Computational Biomechanics Research"<http://biomechanical.asmedigitalcollection.asme.org/article.aspx?articleid=2666967> in the Journal of Biomechanical Engineering. The commentary includes opinions from the editors of six scientific journals and four groups prominently involved in model sharing and discusses the opportunities, challenges, and pathways for model sharing. Share your thoughts<https://simtk.org/plugins/phpBB/viewtopicPhpbb.php?f=91&t=8876&p=0&start=0&view=&sid=415d5ae02711f8efe50415e67b438eb1> on the challenges and solutions for increasing resource-sharing within our community.
