Xsens Awinda

An easy-to-use wireless motion capture system
for a wide variety of applications.

Motion seamlessly captured

Xsens Awinda is a motion capture system with 17 wireless sensors fitted on the body with adjustable straps. It supports fast, easy, and reliable motion capture, making it ideal for regular motions and multiple actors using the same setup. With a range of up to 50 m, it can be used in a wide variety of applications, including occupational health and safety, rehabilitation and injury prevention, animation, entertainment, biomechanical science, and human factor research. Plus, it can be worn over clothing.

Inertial motion capture requires sensors attached to the body to capture movements. But that’s only half of it. You need both hardware and software for a full motion capture system.

Capturing movement

Inertial motion capture measures movement through a network of lightweight sensors placed on the body. Each sensor tracks orientation and motion, transmitting data to the software for real-time visualization and analysis.

A complete Xsens mocap setup includes both hardware and software.
