Noraxon’s new line of wireless electromyography sensors.
Ultium™ Biomechanics Research System
The Ultium-EMG sensors sample up to 4,000 times per second, synchronizes in real-time, and demonstrates the lowest baseline noise with the fewest native artifacts of any similar technology.
Advances in technology resulted in the patent-pending “SmartLead” system, transforming each EMG device into an intelligent sensor that can deliver virtually any type of biometric and physiological data.
Patented Innovations
At the heart of Noraxon’s biomechanics platform are patented and FDA-approved technologies that power world-class
data capture. The result is reliable, repeatable and pure data that enables the precise study of human movement.

Noraxon EMG Software Module: myoMUSCLETM
The myoMUSCLE™ software module features a sophisticated toolset capable of handling any type of electro-kinesiological data captured with the Ultium-EMG sensors. Real-time data is automatically synchronized in an all-in-one analysis, enabling detailed insight for performance enhancement, injury recovery or research metrics. Multiple data export formats and HTTP streaming also allow compatibility with third-party research and animation programs.
Applications
Symmetry & Coordination Tests
These various tests allow for the comparison of affected and unaffected sides. Display the EMG and histogram statistics for unilateral, bilateral, multi joint and symmetrical movements. Evaluate the neuromuscular coordination and compare innervation deficiencies between right and left sides.
Average Activation Patterns
Assess repeated movement sequences and exercises while creating averaged and time normalized EMG patterns. Analyze the typical innervation structure of movements.
EMG Standard Analysis
The new Ultium-EMG uses a universal protocol for all kinds of EMG setups. View basic amplitude parameters in selected analysis periods. Use standard graphs and histograms designed for general analysis questions.
Feedback Training
Use the bar graph display of signals to provide precise training of dysfunctional muscle groups with both acoustic and optical automatic training assistance.
Gait Analysis
The protocol for this analysis was designed for unilateral and bilateral investigation of EMG gait patterns in functional walking and running activities. View typical activity characteristics and coordination of muscle groups during walking/running while analyzing left/right, pre/post test comparisons.
Template Training
Use background templates for biofeedback training. Create EMG/angle/force templates using the healthy side. Use biofeedback and motor learning concepts to confirm the accuracy of performance.
