Sports
Top athletes and sport organizations focus on improving physical performance.
Immersive Virtual reality combined with real time motion analysis is becoming a primary training tool for many athletes, coaches and trainers.
Teams and athletes allways need an extra edge.
From Baseball pitching and golf swing to Gait analysis and training, We offer a full range of systems covering every sport related motions. Professionals, whether in sports or healthcare, look for new tools to enable fast productivity.
The technology is invaluable for injury prevention and rehabilitation, research and human gait analysis. Motek Medical systems are ideal for creating and implementing new training programs in premiere sports centers.
Advantages
Improve specific Motions
Assist top athletes to improve specific motions and achieve the most optimal motion curves. Train and improve symmetry and balance, crucial for example, for top weightlifters.
insight into compensation strategies
Applications that provide insight into compensation strategies that athletes develop to avoid or guard against pain in muscles and joints. The Real-time feedback indicates which muscle groups are used and whether or not they are used properly.
clear and objective data
Defined training programs offering clear and objective data: used muscle groups, muscle forces and joint loads data, joint angles and many other relevent parameters.
Very controlled manner
Athletes and coaches can build up and customise training programs in a very controlled manner.

Applications
The applications listed below are a few examples of the possibilities.
The angler
This application is for athletes with limitations in their joints. The articulation angles are objectively measured and recorded. This is done using motion capture. The objective data show if the articulation angles change as a result of the therapy sessions. The joint rotation is visualized so that the therapist and the athlete get an objective view of the range of motion in real-time.

VR in sports
Virtual reality scenarios coupled with real time presence and interaction offers great potential for enhancing sports performance.
VR simulations can be tailored for any specific sport. Those simulations reveal formations of useful mental strategies and improve performance in the actual sport.
A second form of sports simulation involves using virtual reality concepts to physically immerse an individual into competition of a given sport.
Depending on the simulated sport, Motek Medical technology impacts both the physical and visual immersion through the use of vestibular and force feedback. This feedback not only creates realism by compensating for muscular movements or indicating contact with objects, but also is there to keep the virtual world from colliding with the real world possibly causing an injury.
