As robotics evolves from rigid automation into dynamic, human aware systems, one challenge continues to define the field: how can machines truly understand and respond to human movement?

The answer lies in biomechanics.

Human Data for Intelligent Robotics

Whether developing exoskeletons, prosthetic limbs, humanoids, or collaborative robotic arms, engineers face a common requirement: systems must interpret and respond to complex human motion in real time. That takes more than algorithms. It requires precise, high resolution biomechanical data that reflects how people move, activate muscles, apply force, and interact with their environment.

That is where Noraxon makes a difference.

With a complete ecosystem of wearable and lab based measurement tools including Ultium Motion (IMUs), EMG, pressure insoles, force plates, force sensors, the handgrip dynamometer, and the MANUS Glove, Noraxon enables robotics teams to access synchronized, multimodal data such as:

  1. Joint angles and segmental motion during dynamic tasks
  2. Muscle activation timing, intensity, and indicators of fatigue
  3. Gait and load distribution from pressure insoles
  4. Ground reaction forces from integrated force plates
  5. Grip strength and upper extremity force measurements using the handgrip dynamometer and force sensors
  6. Hand and finger kinematics with the MANUS Glove
  7. Asymmetry detection in repetitive or load bearing movements

This data is captured and analyzed through MR4, Noraxon’s advanced software platform that synchronizes all device inputs in real time. This unified environment simplifies the development of Human Machine Interaction (HMI) and Human Robot Interaction (HRI) by delivering objective, time aligned biomechanical feedback in real time.

Enabling AI Training and Control System Testing

Noraxon’s technology also supports AI training and robotic control system testing, offering developers the rich, real world datasets required to simulate, model, and optimize robotic behavior. By integrating accurate biomechanical signals with learning algorithms, robotics platforms can be designed to respond more intelligently, adaptively, and safely to human users.

How Noraxon Supports Robotics Innovation

From wearable exosuits to humanoid robots and collaborative systems in industrial, clinical, or research settings, the future of robotics depends on understanding the human body. Noraxon’s measurement systems and analytics empower engineers to close the gap between mechanical function and human intention.

Whether you are calibrating control systems, enabling adaptive movement, or training intelligent algorithms, Noraxon provides the tools to help robotic systems move with people naturally, responsively, and efficiently.
