Biography
Prior to establishing Motion Lab Systems, I worked for the Oxford Instruments group in the UK and USA (1974-1984) and then Oxford Metrics Ltd., (1984-1998) in the USA. I worked with Graham Klyne and Julian Morris to provide installation and support for the early Vicon gait and motion capture laboratories in the United States and eventually ran Oxford Metrics Inc., the US subsidiary now called Vicon Motion Systems, until 1997. In the sixteen years that I spent with Vicon, I set up, installed and supported more than sixty Gait and Motion Analysis labs worldwide and simultaneously established Motion Lab Systems, Inc., as one of the leading manufacturers of multi-channel electromyographic (EMG) systems for the gait and biomechanics markets.
I registered the C3D.ORG web site in 1998 to support the C3D file format and published the first version of C3D User Guide, describing the C3D format in Oct, 2001.
