This repository contains the files from the wheelchair propulsion experiment conducted at UFABC.
The first day of trial out was just focused in capturing the 3D position of the markers. The folder "propulsion raw data-01" contains all four propulsion experiments.

The second day of trial out was focused in collecting the following information:
- Force and moment signals during the propulsion from the whelchair wheel;
- EMG signals from a variety of muscles during the propulsion;
- 3D position of the markers.
Therefore, the experiments were divided in:
- 1-2: warm-up
- 3-5: Normal velocity during the propulsion;
- 6-8: Maximal velocity during the propulsion;
- 9 and 10: Descaleration experiment;
- 11 and 12: Sustained static maximum voluntary contraction to propel the wheelchair.
./propulsion raw data-02/trial-0X
- SW1-0X.csv : Force and moment data for the left wheel;
- SW2-0X.csv : Force and moment data for the right wheel;
- mwX.anc : Analog signals to syncronize the SmartWheel and motion capture analysis;
- wcX-Delsys 1.csv : EMG data;
- wcX.trc : Position of markers placed on a subject at different times during a motion capture trial;
