Aquanex sensors measure hand force

Aquanex software displays video and force data

Aquanex measures forces on human and equipment surfaces during aquatic activities.

• Aquatic therapy

• Swimming

• Rowing

• Aquatic exercise

Aquanex research has found that even Olympians can move their hands through the water more effectively. Note the loss in force with the left hand and the lack of increase of force in the right hand. Both of these limitations prevent this swimmer from going faster. Carefully targeted instruction followed by periodic retesting can help a swimmer improve technique and swim faster.

Aquanex software provides a complete, accurate, and instantaneous analysis of force.

• Monitor force in real-time

• Analyze force and time variables

• Graph force curves and summary data

• Print performance reports

The Aquanex system consists of sensors, interface, software, and manual.

• Monitor data from two to eight sensors simultaneously

• Interface connects to laptop computer on the pool deck

• Software runs under Windows XP

• Manual explains software installation, operation, and data interpretation

There are four types of sensors for a wide range of human and equipment surfaces.

• Type A sensors are worn on the hand or foot

• Type B sensors attach to the upper or lower arm or leg

• Type C sensors are custom installed on 3D exercise equipment

• Type D sensors are user installed on hand paddles, fins, and other flat surfaces

 Aquanex hardware and software can be customized for your specific application.
