Markers are arranged based on well defined
marker-sets. Markers should be placed at
specific anatomical positions, where the
objective of the data collection is to capture
the movement of the underlying skeleton.

The BOS is defined as the distance from
heel-to-heel while walking. It is known to
have clinical importance.
