(Liz Marai and Leor's notes for this process are at [[$G/src/jspBin/README.txt]] and [[$G/src/jspBin/trail_contact_areas.txt]])
Follow these steps to compute the distance maps:
# Get required data files into the data root directory
## get the bone Geomagic meshes in OpenInventor format (e.g., <bone_tag>.iv)
## get the "animation file" for each bone, (e.g., <bone_tag>_anim.RT)
## get anatomical coordinate system for each bone (e.g., <bone_tag>_coord.dat)
# Prepare scripts
## copy the "joints_one_linux" and "joints_linux" from $G/bin/jspBin/ to your data's top-level directory
## replace "set data_directory" lines in both with the path to your directory
## replace bone tags with the ones of interest (e.g., bone_tag_1=sca15L and bone_tag_2=lun15L)
