Research. Assessment. Treatment. Education.
As global leaders in advanced human movement technology, we provide you with the opportunity to translate high-level research into pioneering treatments in your hospital.
With fast, validated clinical gait analysis and reporting, continuous gait cycle recordings, and versatile set-ups for human movement research, the therapy programs that you develop for your patients are effective and efficient.
Using real-world physical, cognitive and visual simulation, you can quickly gain objective measurements under challenging, controlled and safe environments. Unique treatment options are facilitated by real-time performance feedback using Motek’s medically certified devices and systems (FDA, CE).
VUmc is a university medical center, closely associated with the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU Amsterdam). One of the university’s research institutes is MOVE, which emphasizes on human movement research. Its mission is to conduct excellent scientific research on human movement and the human movement system within the fields of rehabilitation regenerative medicine and sports, in both healthy individuals and patients. The long-term aim is to conduct innovative, surprising and fundamental research to understand, improve, maintain and/or repair motor functioning.
To this end, MOVE uses a state-of-the-art virtual reality lab equipped with the GRAIL. It allows the faculty to integrate mechanical perturbations and real-time feedback on movement parameters in a virtual reality environment. This benefits the researchers, providing extra flexibility in research protocols and analyzing results.
