+````
+
+This is a model which can predict the posture as a consequence of applied loads in hands.
+It does this by minimizing joint torques and applying balance drivers which account for external
+applied loads.
+

+**Main file location in AMMR:**

+StandingPosturePrediction.main.any`
+:::
+
+
+The model is driven by a combination of the following drivers:
+: - Drivers which minimize the joint moments (arising from gravity and applied loads in hands) in elbow, shoulder, L4L5 and knee
+  - Driver which tries to keep the CoP inside the foot stance area.
+  - Feet maintain contact with the ground, but the position can be controlled by widgets
+  - Hands are linked to an object, of which positioning can be altered using widgets

+
+
+Two type of loads can be applied, either a fixed weight of the object and/or a force vector.
+
+## Usage
+
+To run the model
+: - Load the model
+
+:::{figure} /Applications/images/StandingPosturePredictionModel_UponLoading.jpg
+:align: center
+:::
+
+The example model has a force vector applied on the object, currently the object has no weight (this is editable)
+
+```AnyScriptDoc
+AnyVar ObjectWeight = 0;   //weight of mass applied
+```
+
+- Try to drag (click and drag) one of the widgets in the ModelView (seen as small coordinate systems). For example the force vector widget:
+
+:::{figure} /Applications/images/StandingPosturePredictionModel_WidgetMovement.jpg
+:align: center
+:::
+
+- When the widget is release the model will run the analysis. The Force vector is shown by the blue arrow, the weight of the object is represented by a red line, and the resulting reaction force is depicted by the green arrow.
+
+:::{figure} /Applications/images/StandingPosturePredictionModel_PickupBox.jpg
+:align: center
+:::
+
+There are three remaining widgets, 2 controlling the starting position of the feet, and 1 controlling object's location.
+
+:::{figure} /Applications/images/StandingPosturePredictionModel_FootWidgets.jpg
+:align: center
+:::
+
+The model can also be adjusted to apply the load to both hands or a single hand.
+Three combinations can be made using the define statements
+
+```AnyScriptDoc
+#define LoadInRightHand 1
+#define LoadInLeftHand  1
+```
+
+In the following example a force vector is applied to only the right hand.

+
+The following video shows an example of how you can manipulate the multiple widgets to achieve different predictive postures:
