Deep diving into motion capture used for biomechanics research. I know absolutely nothing about it, but it's always fascinating to peek into other disciplines to learn new terminology, workflows, software, and file formats. Seems .C3D files are used a lot for datasets.
After some searching, I found a dataset of individuals walking in C3D format. I eventually converted that into CSV so I can work with it easier. Then I fumbled with trying to convert 3D points to 2D points. But kept at it and got to this, which made it all worth while!

More “walks” though the dataset with the plotter. Really liking the fluidity of the lines.

The dataset only has points from shoulders down so there’s nothing for the head. But one can be approximated and placed appropriately.

Marching, one by one.
*Edit, replaced the video as it seems the original .GIF was mangled and wouldn't play?

@paulrickards That is seriously trippy. Put me into a trance. The way the hands touch the elbows...!
