Plus

NOTE: Pipeline command parameters use + as delimiter

If the user wants to use an expression containing a + in a command parameter that allows multiple signals, Visual3D will likely interpret this plus sign incorrectly.

The workaround is to use a mathematical function add() to express the addition.

add(a,b) – adds two expressions.

Equals

= or == - Boolean Operator equals Example: Comparing a model metric with a string

Consider a model metric that is defined as a string. Set_Model_Metric ! /CALIBRATION_FILE= /METRIC_NAME=TEST /METRIC_VALUE=“TTT” ; Now compare it to the text string “TTT” Evaluate_Expression /EXPRESSION=MODEL::METRIC::TEST=“TTT” /RESULT_NAME=SCOTT /RESULT_TYPE=METRIC ! /RESULT_FOLDER=PROCESSED ; The text strings should be equal so the resulting signal contains a 1

Not_Equals

<> or >< - Boolean Operator “Not Equals”

Using the Adjective NOT

NOT can be used with the logical AND and logical OR

Example: Given a workspace containing 3 trials (*trial1.c3d, *trial2.c3d, and *trial3.c3d)

All trials are assigned a TAG labeled WALK

trial1.c3d is also assigned a TAG labeled BAD

Select_Active_File /FILE_NAME=WALK /QUERY=BAD ; This command results in *trial1.c3d being active

Select_Active_File /FILE_NAME=WALK /QUERY=NOT(BAD) ; This command results in *trial2.c3d and *trial3.c3d being active.

Less_Than

< Boolean Operator less than

Example

Given two signals TARGET::ORIGINAL::RFT1 TARGET::ORIGINAL::LFT1 Use the Boolean operator < to identify when the Z component of RFT1 is less than the Z component of LFT1 Evaluate_Expression /EXPRESSION= TARGET::ORIGINAL::RFT1::Z < TARGET::ORIGINAL::LFT1::Z /RESULT_NAME=RFT1_GREATER /RESULT_TYPE=DERIVED /RESULT_FOLDER=PROCESSED ; The output signal will be 1 when RFT1::Z is less than LFT1::Z and 0 otherwise Example - Foot Clearance

Given the following situation. Heel and Toe clearance are defined by two paths. One might consider Foot clearance to be the lower value of the heel and toe clearance values at each frame. Here is a simplified test of this Make the Global Workspace Active. Create 2 signals as follows Evaluate_Expression /EXPRESSION=LIST(1,2,3,4,5) ! /SIGNAL_TYPES= ! /SIGNAL_FOLDER=ORIGINAL ! /SIGNAL_NAMES= ! /SIGNAL_COMPONENTS= /RESULT_TYPES=DERIVED /RESULT_FOLDERS=PROCESSED /RESULT_NAME=SIGNAL1 ! /APPLY_AS_SUFFIX_TO_SIGNAL_NAME=FALSE ; Evaluate_Expression /EXPRESSION=LIST(5,4,3,2,1) ! /SIGNAL_TYPES= ! /SIGNAL_FOLDER=ORIGINAL ! /SIGNAL_NAMES= ! /SIGNAL_COMPONENTS= /RESULT_TYPES=DERIVED /RESULT_FOLDERS=PROCESSED /RESULT_NAME=SIGNAL2 ! /APPLY_AS_SUFFIX_TO_SIGNAL_NAME=FALSE ; !create a new signal that is the lower value of the two signals

Evaluate_Expression /EXPRESSION=(DERIVED::PROCESSED::SIGNAL1⇐DERIVED::PROCESSED::SIGNAL2)*DERIVED::PROCESSED::SIGNAL1 +(DERIVED::PROCESSED::SIGNAL2<DERIVED::PROCESSED::SIGNAL1)*DERIVED::PROCESSED::SIGNAL2 ! /SIGNAL_TYPES= ! /SIGNAL_FOLDER=ORIGINAL ! /SIGNAL_NAMES= ! /SIGNAL_COMPONENTS= /RESULT_TYPES=DERIVED /RESULT_FOLDERS=PROCESSED /RESULT_NAME=SIGNAL_LOWER ! /APPLY_AS_SUFFIX_TO_SIGNAL_NAME=FALSE ;

Less_Than_Or_Equals

! style=“text-align:left;” | ⇐ or =< Boolean Operator less than or equal to

Example:

Given two signals TARGET::ORIGINAL::RFT1 TARGET::ORIGINAL::LFT1 Use the Boolean operator ⇐ or the boolean operative =< to identify when the Z component of RFT1 is less than or equal to the Z component of LFT1 Evaluate_Expression /EXPRESSION= TARGET::ORIGINAL::RFT1::Z ⇐ TARGET::ORIGINAL::LFT1::Z /RESULT_NAME=RFT1_GREATER /RESULT_TYPE=DERIVED /RESULT_FOLDER=PROCESSED ; The output signal will be 1 when RFT1::Z is less than or equal toLFT1::Z and 0 otherwise
