Teaching Biomechanics with Noraxon Technology

For over 35 years, Noraxon has been a leader in research-grade biomechanics technology. Our multi-device software platform, MR, allows students and educators to collect, analyze, and report human movement data—including EMG, motion capture, force, and pressure—in a single, easy-to-use system. Designed to streamline biomechanics education, Noraxon helps students focus on learning concepts rather than navigating complex tools. With a free Academic License, students can access the software beyond the classroom and gain hands-on experience with real-world biomechanics workflows.

“Noraxon movement solutions, educational packages (licenses) and technical team are a great fit for in the classroom teaching, student laboratory experiences and also enable high quality faculty research.

My learning points are more vivid with Noraxon demonstrations and student engagement is first rate. Student innovation is enhanced to new levels especially in my biomechanics elective where we use the student license package.”
