'''Visual3D''' is a [[Proprietary software|proprietary]] general purpose [[Biomechanics|biomechanics]] modeling and analysis software package developed and published by '''C-Motion, Inc'''.  The software makes use of the '''[[List of motion and gesture file formats#C3D file format|C3D]] file format''' for input data as well as real-time motion data streamed by several hardware manufacturers.  The program is not restricted in terms of marker sets and provides a historical audit trail of data changes.  Modeling features include kinematics, inverse dynamics (kinetics) and inverse kinematics (global optimizations).

'''Visual3D''' evolved from a clinical research tool for 6DoF modeling developed at the [[NIH]] by Tom Kepple (originally called "Move3D").

'''Visual3D''' is a toolbox of publicly available analysis and signal processing algorithms and methods which are documented in the textbook Research Methods in Biomechanics from Human Kinetics, and also on the [http://www.c-motion.com/v3dwiki| Visual3D wiki pages].

'''Visual3D''' is used by academics, clinicians, sports analysts and others interested in understanding biological motion. For an example of gait analysis, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MON0b3z_qCs|see this video].
