APPLICATIONS
An accelerometer measures the acceleration and gravity it experiences. Both are typically expressed in SI units meters/second^2 (m/s^2) or popularly in terms of g-force. The JA-T003 model Biomechanics Tri-axial Transducer can be used for biomechanics, engineering, medical research, orthopedics, rehabilitation evaluation, prosthetics, and general industrial uses. Specific uses include gait analysis, “Romberg” testing or stability analysis, neurological analysis, prosthetics fitting, athletic performance, shoe design, and force, power, and work studies.
DESCRIPTION
The BIOFORCEN Biomechanics Tri-axial Accelerometer model JA-T003 was specifically designed for the precise measurement of acceleration and gravity induced reaction forces. The transducer measures the three orthogonal acceleration components along the X, Y, and Z axes. The high sensitivity, low crosstalk, excellent repeatability and long term stability of this transducer makes it ideal for research and clinical studies.
AMPLIFICATION
The JA-T003 model Biomechanics Tri-axial Accelerometer uses capacitive sensor. The device consists of two surface micromachined capacitive sensing cells and a signal conditioning ASIC contained in a single integrated circuit package. The sensing elements are sealed hermetically at the wafer level using a bulk micromachined cap wafer. It provides excitation and amplification for multiple channels in one convenient package. These amplifiers process the transducer signals and provide outputs suitable for an A/D converter so that the data can be stored and processed by a computer.
CALIBRATION
Each platform is inspected and tested in BIOFORCEN’s calibration facility. The calibration procedure provides a detailed sensitivity matrix and a complete test of all system components, including the amplifier and the connecting cable if ordered together.
SOFTWARE
Automated data collection and reduction requires a computer and software. BIOFORCEN-Analysis, BIOFORCEN’s software package, is specifically designed for biomechanics applications. It provides quick and easy hardware setup and automated data acquisition and analysis. BIOFORCEN-Analysis allows the user to quickly begin testing rather than take on the tedious and lengthy process of writing data acquisition and reduction routines. The BIOFORCEN-Analysis software package is available separately or combined in one of BIOFORCEN’s Bioforcen Systems.
BIOFORCEN’S BIOFORCEN SYSTEMS
