# Motion Data - Biomechanics Output

#### Data Structure

The mocap data is organized as a list of frames, where each frame corresponds to a specific timestamp. Each frame contains joint data for various body parts. Below is the explanation of each field and its meaning.

#### Timestamps

Each frame starts with a timestamp field, indicating the time at which the data was captured. The timestamp is represented in seconds.

#### Joint Data

The `joint_data` field contains a dictionary of joints, where each key is the name of a joint, and the value is an object containing the following properties:

- **Position**: A list with the x, y, and z coordinates of the joint in the world space (values are in meters).
- **Type**: The type of rotation (e.g., `euler_xyz`, `euler_x`, `euler_zyx`).
- **Rotations**: A list of rotation values, which varies in length depending on the type of rotation (values are in radians). These rotations are expressed their local coordinate frame.
- **Torques**: A list of torque values applied to the joint (values are newton-meter).
- **Reaction Forces**: The reaction force experienced by the foot joints (values are in Newton). If the value is 0.0, this means that the foot joint is not in contact with any surface.

#### Example of Joint Data

```
"Root": { "position": [-0.1304, -0.0399, 0.9518], "type": "euler_xyz", "rotations": [0.3791, -0.2012, 2.8031], "torques": [-337.3071, 241.416, 200.5884], "reaction_forces": 0.0 }
```

Each joint entry follows a similar structure, providing a comprehensive dataset for motion capture analysis.
