No sensors – No special suits – No calibration downtime

For doctors and their patients, the waiting time for set up and calibration vanishes. Movement analysis is now instantaneous.

For physically challenged patients, the impossibility of putting on a body suit, attaching sensors and waiting for a technician to calibrate the system is over.

For sports analysis, the combination of speed, accuracy, and no special gear to wear, allows athletes to have instant access to their exact motion in full 3D without any constraints.

Overview

The difficult technical challenge to track human movement in a natural state, without any suits or markers, has been solved. Organic Motion’s technology allows computers to accurately see, understand, translate and communicate human motion, with staggering ramifications for the life sciences and related fields.

Research

BioStage has the ability to capture the subject's motion unencumbered by any physical tracking devices, and then visually evaluate and objectively analyze the subject's movement in real-time. Together with leading biomechanical analysis software and the integration of force platforms and EMG, Organic Motion offers a comprehensive research tool.

Clinical

Clinical motion analysis is regularly used for patient populations diagnosed with developmental disabilities and movement disorders such as cerebral palsy, Parkinson’s disease, stroke, autism, hyperkinesis, brain/spinal cord injuries and other neuromuscular problems.

Motion analysis not only assists the physician in the pre-surgical or pre-therapy decision making process but also allows the therapist to better monitor the progress during post-surgery rehabilitative treatment, all of which results in improved patient outcomes.

Organic Motion’s technology takes this process considerably further by not only reducing the cost of doing motion analysis but also making it much more accessible and flexible for numerous clinical applications.

Organic Motion’s BioStage works completely 'markerless' and is totally non-invasive and non-intrusive. BioStage eliminates lengthy setup procedures, makes it is easier for the patient and therapist to go through the evaluation protocol and leads to higher acceptance for everybody involved in the process. Free, unencumbered and a more natural movement automatically results in higher data quality.

Organic Motion offers highly consistent, accurate and comparable data over repeated trials, across setups and across operators. BioStage takes away potential errors associated with misplacement or misalignment of markers resulting in improved accuracy of evaluations.

Typical clinical user groups that utilize motion analysis include:

• Posture and Gait
• Neuroscience
• Physical Therapy
• Sports Medicine
• Orthopedics

Sports Performance Evaluation & Enhancement

Athletes, coaches and trainers want to improve and monitor performance as well as to prevent and treat injuries efficiently. Organic Motion's technology captures unrestricted motion performed at top speed and provides quantifiable and reproducible 3D data and results immediately.

BioStage’s capabilities include the instant synchronization of video with tracking data. It is so easy to use that it operates without a technician and requires no body suit.

BioStage motion tracking system can be used to:

• Better quantify improvement or loss of performance during training via motion analysis of athletes
• Better quantify improvement by comparing individuals with other athletes
• Determine if an athlete is prone to injury
• Identify the athletes with the potential to be good at a certain sport
• Quantify a normal reference pattern for each athlete
