What’s the best way to control assistive robots using muscle signals?

This research put Noraxon EMG-based control to the test in a virtual kitchen, comparing simple control methods with more automated approaches for training future prosthetic and assistive robot users.

Users completed daily-living tasks successfully across control modes, with simpler EMG strategies supporting reliable and efficient robot control.

Not every body can stand perfectly still or perfectly neutral.

The Virtual Calibration Tool (vCAT) lets you refine calibration after capture, so posture limitations don’t limit your data.

A capability you won't find in any other IMU system.

Now available as a BETA feature in the latest MR4 update.

Everyone analyzes what happens after landing.

But injury risk and control are often decided before the foot hits the ground.

Our new Pre-Contact Phase lets you examine muscle activation and movement in the milliseconds leading up to impact; giving critical insight into landing readiness, motor control, and injury risk.

Same jump workflows. One powerful new window into performance.

Running Injuries are often driven by identifiable movement patterns.

In this upcoming webinar, Dr. Christopher Powers breaks down his biomechanical approach to evaluating injured runners. He will show how to identify key movement impairments, prioritize what matters during the assessment, and how to use visual analysis to guide his clinical decisions.

Last week we had the whole team in town for our first ever Christmas games followed by our Christmas Party!

It was great to get everyone together to play games, celebrate anniversaries, and of course, steal some gifts!

We are grateful for this team and all of their hard work this year! 👏👏

Are your return-to-sport tests capturing the forces athletes actually face in competition?
Athletes don’t just move up and down, they brake, cut, and change direction fast.

The new MR4 release adds support for change of direction and cutting assessments so you can measure the movements that actually matter for return-to-play.

Real movement 🤝 real data.

Ultium Motion is built to protect accuracy when posture varies, sessions run long, and movement gets complex.

That’s why we’ve built tools you won’t find in any other IMU system:
• Intelligent Drift Stabilization
• Virtual Calibration Adjustment Tool (vCAT - BETA)
• Translation Toolbox

Designed for real movement and built for data you can trust.

We’re grateful to have had Rory on our team this year. His internship spanned software, hardware testing, documentation, marketing, and real-world product development; the full lifecycle of working in biomechanics and medical device technology.

He summed up his time with Noraxon: “Few companies give interns the comprehensive exposure to the full life cycle of medical device development that Noraxon does… Noraxon is a wonderful place to work in all aspects, and I highly recommend students interested in biomechanics and/or biomedical engineering apply for the Noraxon internship program.”

We wish him all the best in his future endeavors!

Introducing a capability you won’t find in any other IMU system.
The new Virtual Calibration Adjustment Tool (vCAT), exclusive to Noraxon, brings flexible, frame-based calibration correction into MR4 for the first time.

When a true neutral posture isn’t possible, vCAT gives you the power to refine calibration visually: drag landmarks, apply markerless pose proposals, and see instant avatar updates for cleaner, more representative joint angle data.

This capability isn’t available in any other inertial motion capture system, and you can start using it now in the latest MR4 release (BETA) as we continue refining it with user feedback.

High Quality Biomechanics

Noraxon technology enables its users to capture high quality human movement data. This is done with a modular approach and easy-to-use toolset of FDA-approved sensor systems and software, myoRESEARCH®. The equipment was built for both researchers and clinicians, a combination of easy-to-use features and reliable research quality data.

What sets Noraxon apart is the variety of data they can be seamlessly collected and combined within a single software platform. The integration of electromyography, force, pressure, motion and high speed video is complemented by automatic synchronization, creating a smarter workflow and reliable data. This single software can take you from data capture, to review and interpretation, all the way through an analysis and reporting. Collection, review, analysis, and reporting is now a streamlined process, even with data from many complex biomechanics recording systems.
