Abstract

This work presents a simulation system designed to carry-out virtual experiments on human motion. 3D visualization, automatic code generation and generic control design patterns provide biomechanicians and medics with dynamic simulation tools. The paper first deals with the design of mechanical models of human beings. It also presents design patterns of controllers for an upper-limb model composed of 11 degrees of freedom. As an example, two controllers are presented in order to illustrate these design patterns. We also present an user-friendly interface dedicated to medics that makes it possible to enter orders in natural language.
