+====== How to create a CODA pelvis relative to anatomical landmarks ======
-Create CODA pelvis relative to anatomical landmarks.
+The [[visual3d:documentation:modeling:coordinate_system|segment coordinate system]] for the [[visual3d:documentation:modeling:segments:coda_pelvis|CODA pelvis]] is the mid-point between the ASIS markers. The anatomical landmarks are actually posterior to the ASIS markers because the motion capture system tracks the centre of the marker.
-The segment coordinate system for the CODA pelvis is the mid-point between the ASIS markers. The anatomical landmarks are actually posterior to the ASIS markers because the motion capture system tracks the center of the marker.
+===== Correcting the CODA definition =====
 This is a modest error, but it can be corrected by creating landmarks that are posterior to the ASIS markers by the radius of the motion capture marker.

-In this example, the marker has a diameter of 1.2 cm. Visual3D uses MKS units, so the value is 0.006 meters.
-**Note:** If the radius is not consistent with your marker radius, modify the value.
