Abstract :
The problem of hip joint centre location using optical markers is addressed. We present a novel computational technique which can recover joint centre location based solely on marker measurements together with a quantitative estimate of its uncertainty. Preliminary experimental validation of the technique on a rigid jointed object is presented
