Moving humanity forward

The accurate measurement of kinematics – the study of the motion of mechanical points, bodies, and systems – is essential to driving today’s biomechanical research.

 

Investigating and understanding the mechanisms of human movement is key to improving people’s lives, either through rehabilitation, injury prevention, or enhanced sporting performance.

Lab-quality data beyond the lab

Our products capture laboratory-quality kinematic data – from accurate 3D joint angles and segment positions to detailed body accelerations and positions – all without a lab in sight. This means measurements can be taken anywhere, any time, whether that’s at home, on the field, or in the street. The technology also integrates with all market-leading software packages, further streamlining your processes.

 

To ensure accuracy, we use sensor fusion algorithms to deliver the highest quality motion analysis, even in the most challenging magnetically disturbed environments. All data is validated through regular peer review.

MVN Link

When high-dynamic movement measurements or high-data output rates are needed, Movella's MVN Link system is ideal. MVN Link supports on-body data recording for up to 10 hours. Data can be recorded, viewed and exported using MVN Analyze software or the system can be used with our MVN Reports solutions.
