Vicon Vero

The compact Vero cameras have sensor resolutions of either 1.3 or 2.2 megapixels. The camera has a variable zoom lens, which makes it especially suited for smaller capture volumes where it is especially important to have an optimum field of view. The Vero’s attractive price combined with its light weight and small size makes it a great choice for smaller labs and studios.

Vicon Nexus

Vicon Nexus has been designed for the requirements and workflow of Life Science users. Data recording and processing can be fully customized to fit your requirements (for example by including your own marker sets and biomechanical models), and then automated so that routine tasks require only a mouse click. Data is hierarchically organized in the data management, and direct interfaces to MATLAB and Python allow data to be processed without the need to export and import data files.

prophysics – AMTI Optima – Performance System

AMTI Optima force plates

The Optima is the flagship among force plates. The patented calibration technology guarantees the highest possible accuracy across the entire surface of the plate – ideal for gait analysis, biomechanical research and other applications where the highest quality data is essential.

The research laboratory for robotics, perception and artificial intelligence

prophysics has equipped the MIRMI, a research laboratory for robotics, perception and artificial intelligence, with a Vicon motion capture system, Kistler force plates, Cometa 32 channel and a Motek M-Gait system. The aim of the MIRMI laboratories is to carry out experiments on test subjects in order to answer questions about human biomechanics, neuromechanics and sensorimotor function. This involves testing and evaluating various robotic assistance and rehabilitation systems for medical and healthcare applications.
