[Opensim-announcement] RehabWeek Workshop, Improvements to OpenCap, and more

[Matthew Petrucci]

OpenCap and AddBiomechanics Workshop at RehabWeek 2025
May 12-16, 2025, Chicago, IL, USA

The Restore<http://restore.stanford.edu> and Mobilize<http://mobilize.stanford.edu> Centers are running a workshop at RehabWeek, "OpenCap and AddBiomechanics: Tools for Large-Scale Biomechanics Studies.” Join the workshop to learn how these tools enable rapid, accessible movement analysis—from measuring 3D human motion using smartphone videos with OpenCap<http://opencap.ai> to automating motion capture data processing with AddBiomechanics<http://addbiomechanics.org>. Through demos and hands-on tutorials, our team will demonstrate how these tools accelerate both lab-based and out-of-lab studies of hundreds of participants for movement screening, injury prevention, and monitoring rehabilitation.

Kinematic Accuracy of OpenCap Improved with Marker Enhancer

Our freely available OpenCap<http://opencap.ai> software enables smartphone video-based analysis of human movement. Antoine Falisse and other researchers from the Mobilize Center<http://mobilize.stanford.edu> recently published a paper describing a new “marker enhancer” model for OpenCap, which significantly boosts accuracy and better generalizes across diverse movements. Underlying the improvements is an expanded training dataset, which includes 1,176 subjects and 1,433 hours of movement data. The upgraded marker enhancer is now available in OpenCap for researchers to use.

Attend Neuromusculoskeletal Modeling Pipeline Training Workshop and Share Your Research at Summer School on Neurorehabilitation

Baiona, Spain, June 8-13, 2025

Application Deadline: April 25, 2025



A call for applications to the 2025 Summer School on Neurorehabilitation (SSNR) is now open. The meeting provides in-depth education on advanced procedures for neurorehabilitation of motor cognitive dysfunction following conditions such as stroke, spinal cord injury, and amputation. Topics include neuroprosthetic systems, robotic interfaces, and personalized rehabilitation/neurorehabilitation.



Several workshops will be offered during SSNR, including the Neuromusculoskeletal Modeling Pipeline Training Workshop hosted by Professor B.J. Fregly. This hands-on workshop teaches participants how to use open-source Matlab-based software to add model personalization and treatment optimization toolsets<https://nmsm.rice.edu/> to the OpenSim musculoskeletal modeling software<https://opensim.stanford.edu>.
