Abstract
Purpose: Although MATLAB is a powerful math program, its virtual reality (VR) toolbox is limited for those who engage in the modelling of human body systems. The integration of Poser software with MATLAB is provided in this study for designing and developing human bodies in VR. Materials and Methods: First, a human entire body model was created in the Poser environment. The prototype is then loaded into MATLAB Simulink. Results: Two-Link Arm powered by Six Muscles (TLASM), a well-known model of human arm movements in the horizontal plane, is simulated to test the efficiency of the virtual model. TLASM was presented in this team s prior work. Conclusion: Despite the fact that only one limb of the human virtual platform body has been tested, it can easily be applied to other limbs.
