Static Skeleton Calibration operation

Static Skeleton Calibration attempts to calibrate a skeleton from a single frame. It tries to optimize both joint and marker positions. The subject is usually in a T-pose for the entire trial.

Algorithm description

This operation calibrates the joint and marker positions from a single frame. It also tries to fit the skeleton joint angles. To do this, it runs the same algorithm as Functional Skeleton Calibration with only one frame selected. It is not normally advisable to run this operation on a general skeleton template because it is not possible to determine the joint centers without any motion. For this operation to succeed, every joint center must be defined by a linear combination of marker positions. As it is not possible to estimate the joint and marker statistics from a single frame, the subject statistics are left unchanged.
