BioProc2 Data Processing
System
(Version 2.39, 24 June 2007)
This page provides access to software that may be used
to process and analyze various types of analog data files, including:
APAS's analog data (.ANA),
Tekscan's F-Scan ASCII data (.ASG),
Chattecx's KinCom ASCII files (.CHT etc.),
Kistler's BioWare2 analog data (.DAT),
European Data Format files (.EDF and .REC),
Motion Analysis
Corp.'s ASCII files (.ANB, .ANC),
National Instruments'
BioBench and VILogger
ASCII files,
Vicon's analog and ASCII
data files (.C3D, .VAD, .CSV,
.TXT),
and several
other
file formats
including columnated ASCII files.
The software can be used to generate
waveforms
and test various data smoothing techniques for educational purposes.
Its
graphical display permits the simultaneous viewing and analysis of up
to
64 signals. It is suitable for analyzing force platform, EMG,
accelerometer
or force transducer signals and correcting bias levels or filtering
unwanted
noise.

Files:
bpwin2.zip
(7 Mb) or bpwin2.exe Self-extracting
archive and installation program for
Windows98 or later based BioProc2. Note, this program may require
updating the
Windows system. This should not create any problems for newer operating
systems. It merely updates several .DLL files to permit proper
functioning of the Visual
Basic 6 programs. For Windows98 there has been problems with
MSVCRT.DLL. You should NOT upgrade this file. BioProc2 can
use the older version but the install program comes with the latest
Visual Studio version 6. (Click
here for the older version of MSVCRT.DLL). This files goes in the
directory C:\Windows\System.
