ABSTRACT:
A method for determining instantaneous helical axis parameters pertaining to the kinematic function of a joint processes the data with a first filter function which is based upon the Woltring IHA filter function. In accordance with the invention, backward propagating noise is eliminated by prefiltering the data utilizing a Butterworth filter.
