La Escuela de Fisioterapia de las Escuelas Universitarias Gimbernat, en el campus de Torrelavega, ha comenzado a usar sus nuevos sensores inerciales STT-IWS y el sistema iSen. El sistema iSen emplea los sensores inerciales STT-IWS que proveen de ángulos en tiempo real así como velocidades angulares y aceleraciones. Se comunican de forma inalámbrica mediante Wi-Fi,…

Myon AG, in cooperation the Sports Institute of the Technical University of Munich, recently carried out a series of ground-breaking tests in the field of ski jumping. Analyzing full-body motion has always been challenging due to the long distances covered by the athlete, including a considerably long flight time away from wireless networks. A very…

iSen, our motion capture system including inertial sensors and processing software, now includes a plugin for Unity, allowing users to stream animation data into this visualization engine in real time. Experience the character animation in a new way: full-body tracking, with no permanent installation and live visualization.

How is a running 3D analysis tool used in practice? It’s no secret that using a 3D system for running analysis will provide a great variety of biomechanical parameters, accurately and in real time. When dealing with runners, these systems help improving their technique, preventing injuries and assessing recovery. But how is a running 3D…
