and stop points as much as possible). Often these separate analyses will
reveal a preferred and most efficient method.
◾ Step 2 involves either video recording the actual or real- world opera-
tional sequence or developing and recording a high- fidelity simulation
of the operation. Since a time- critical BTE mapping analysis usually
occurs at the micro—seconds or minute—level, it is nearly impossible
to analyze these types of fast- paced operations in real time. Accordingly,
for the level of detail required in a BTE mapping effort, some type of
live or simulated video recording is usually an analytical necessity.
◾ Using the previously developed video recording or simulation, Step 3
