SIMI at SHUThis web site provides students with access to a range of movies that illustrate a variety of procedures that can be used in SIMI motion analysis software. The movies are accessed by selecting the linked text within each identifed sections. Navigation to each section can be achieved via menu bar at the top of the screen. Selecting 'Return to top of the page' will bring the user back to the menu bar for futher selections if required. an overview of Simi's features canbe obtained by selecting the following link. The site is under development and if students have a particular procedure that they would like to have a support movie for, they should inform the module leader.
The following movie clip link provides access to a general overview of SIMI - it is not meant as a tutorial |
