Sensor technology in rehabilitation sports - direct support for people
It is not only in industry or mobility that the demand for networked and intelligent products that record their interactions by sensors is increasing. Torque and force sensors are also of great importance in the areas of rehabilitation and sports.
A well-known example of this is sensory performance measurement for ambitious cyclists, which has long since been used in more than just professional sports. The power applied to the pedals by the rider can be used to assess the performance of a training session in standardized detail: Independent of factors such as headwind and incline. In addition, the athlete receives valuable feedback about irregularities in his riding style.

In a variety of applications where relevant forces and torques are transmitted via tube structures, core sensing's smart force sensors offer a unique opportunity for an intelligent product. Whether in a Nordic walking or ski pole or in a crutch: Supporting force is equally relevant for patients and athletes to optimize motion sequences and record athletic performance.

Sensor technology for sports & rehab - application examples
Fitness equipment
Anyone who trains ambitiously also wants to track their progress. With core sensing sensors, it is possible to record forces and performance in a wide range of training equipment.
Rehab
With our force sensors, it is possible to make the invisible quantities of force and torque visible. Especially for patients who have a limited feeling for their hands due to an impairment, it is helpful to visualize this force.
Walking aid
With our force sensors, it is possible to make the invisible quantities of force and torque visible. Especially for patients who have a limited feeling for their hands due to an impairment, it is helpful to visualize this force.
Cycling - power measurement wave
Acquisition of torques in the crank axis (hollow shaft) for precise and robust power measurement during cycling.
Golf clubs
Most measurement systems in golf are optical or measure the accelerations of the swing. Imagine if you could measure the most important quantity directly, namely how much power is transferred from the club to the ball!
Advantages of the IoT sensors from core sensing
Our sensors not only measure forces and torques, but also record a variety of other measured variables, such as speed, accelerations and temperature. Not only that: the robust, wireless sensors are protected inside the components and thus provide safe, reliable sensor values. Simply benefit from the following advantages:
Optimized for rotating and moving parts
Our performance begins where conventional manufacturers and transducers reach their limits. Our sensors can be integrated very easily into existing designs - whether as standard components or individual parts.
Optimized for harsh and demanding environment
Due to the sensor integration inside the component, our sensors are excellently protected against external influences.
Optimized for wireless use
Our sensors not only measure forces and torques, but also record a variety of other measured variables, such as speed, accelerations and temperature.
