Positioning of the thirty-nine markers used for tracking the musculoskeletal system during movement, which includes triad clusters on each segment plus anatomical markers required to define joint centres and the segment-embedded coordinate system (origins shown, right hand coordinate system), where is anterior pointing, is lateral pointing, and is vertical pointing.
