Peer-reviewed research using Xsens motion capture systems

Xsens MVN inertial motion capture systems are widely used in biomechanics, sports science, and rehabilitation research. The wireless, full-body sensor suits enable naturalistic movement analysis in lab and field settings, making them a standard tool for gait analysis, sports performance, and clinical assessment studies.

What is the Xsens MVN Awinda and what is it used for?

The Xsens MVN Awinda is a wireless inertial motion capture system using IMU sensors attached to the body, enabling full-body human motion capture without a fixed camera setup. It is used in biomechanics, gait analysis, sports science, and rehabilitation research.

What research applications is the Xsens MVN Awinda suited for?

The Xsens MVN Awinda is suited for gait and motion analysis, sports performance research, ergonomics studies, rehabilitation assessment, and human factors research where camera-free, portable full-body motion capture is required.

What are the key technical features of the Xsens MVN Awinda?

The Xsens MVN Awinda (catalog number: MVN-Awinda) uses wireless Awinda IMU transmitters with 17 sensors covering the full body, providing 6 DOF joint kinematics with automatic sensor fusion and real-time visualization in MVN Analyze software.

Is the Xsens MVN Awinda available in Israel with local support?

Yes. NBT Ltd distributes Xsens motion capture systems in Israel. Our team provides full local support including installation, calibration training, and ongoing technical assistance for the MVN Awinda and all Xsens products.

What software does the Xsens MVN Awinda use?

The Xsens MVN Awinda works with MVN Analyze software for real-time 3D motion visualization, data export, and biomechanical analysis. It also integrates with Qualisys QTM, MATLAB, and third-party motion analysis platforms via standard data export formats.
