The AMTI Force Plate BMS600900 is a large area forceplated used for COP and load measurement. This device uses the “AMTINetForce” software which allows for real time viewing and data collection. Equipment for the AMTI Force Plate includes: · Two BMS600900 Force Plate · Two AMTI Gen 5 Signal Conditioner · AMTINetForce Software Data collected · Ground reaction forces in the X, Y, and Z directions · Center of pressure · Center of force Force Plate Product Page: https://tinyurl.com/AMTIForcePlate

APDM’s Opals are intertial measurement units that can be used to track joint positions. The sensors are low profile and can be worn under thick clothing and other equipment. They can be used to measure: · Several different gait parameters · Limb velocity during motion · Limb angles during motion · Signs of Neuromuscular disorders (e.g. postural sway, sit to stand time, turn ability)   Equipment for APDM Opal System Includes: · 15 IMU · 3 Charging Docks · Opal Straps · Motion Studio software Opal product page and technical specifications: https://www.apdm.com/wearable-sensors/ Selected publications using Mobility Lab and Opal: https://www.apdm.com/publications/

The BioPac EMG are wireless electromyography sensors which displays, records, and analyzes electrical activity from large and small muscle groups. The software “AcqKnowledge” can be used to view real time the data recorded from the sensors. The software allows for manual markers placements as well as a sync function to other devices. Furthermore, this software can also be used for data analysis and provides filter options for both real-time and post acquisition. Equipment for the BioPac EMG include · BioPac Modules (2 sets of 16) and Tower (2 sets of 8) · Disposable Electrode Leads · Self-adhesive wrap BioPac EMG Product Page: http://www.biopac.com/application/emg-electromyography/ BioPac Consumable Page: http://www.biopac.com/products/

Charged per hour. The NERVE Center staff can provide additional services such as consulting for test plan design, IRB protocol development, and the construction of custom test apparatuses. Additional fees for materials and supplies may be added, if applicable. Before booking, e-mail NERVE Center Assistant Director, Adam Norton - adam_norton@uml.edu -to review test plans and scope.

The Cosmed K5 Metabolic Measurement System is a device that measures metabolic parameters (VO2, VCO2, VE, Rf, etc.) in a laboratory or field setting. This is a touch screen single body device with a VO2 mask and harness attachments. The software “COSMED ONMIA” can be used for data analysis (slice, exporting data, and figure creation) as well as wireless data collection via Bluetooth. The COSMED K5 has all the features of a metabolic cart with the ability to be used portably. It can provide information about a participant’s · Energy requirements during rest and activity · Energy Expenditure · Ratios of substrates used during (e.g. respiratory exchange ratio) · Lung volumes & Respiratory Frequency Cosmed K5 Product Page: https://www.cosmed.com/en/products/cardio-pulmonary-exercise-test/k5 Cosmed K5 Introduction Page: https://www.cosmed.com/wearit/

The equivital life monitor vest is able to record heart rate, breathing rate, skin temperature, general activity, general body position, and waveform ECG. Data collected from the life monitor vest is initiated through a tablet. Once the data collection is started, it will record to the vest. However, data can be streamed online. Streamed data can have real time markers added to it and core temperature can be estimated. Equivital Product Page: https://www.equivital.com/products/social-distancing-device

Individually quoted per job. This fee will be incurred for any test course usage or construction that requires the acquisition of materials and supplies to build custom test apparatuses, facilitate testing, etc.

The Motek M-Gait instrumented treadmill includes a two belt treadmill and an overhead harness for safety. The treadmill can measure ground reaction forces, center of pressure, and spatio-temporal parameters, and the treadmill sensors can be integrated with other motion capture systems. The left and right belt can be controlled independently. This allows the treadmill to mimic tripping or slipping. The body weight support prevents any sort of risk during the mimicked tripping or slipping. Additionally, The whole base of the treadmill can move dynamically the pitch and sway.

Motion Analysis Kestrel cameras used in conjunction with the instrumented treadmill to track motion, analyze gait, and calculate joint angles. Other motion capture systems may be available for use off of the treadmill; contact the lab manager if you are interested in these systems.

Individually quoted per job. This fee will be incurred for any costs to rent offsite testing locations.

Charged per hour. The NERVE Center provides test courses, apparatuses, and environments to use for robot testing and operator training. Available apparatuses include standard test methods specified through ASTM E54.09 for response robots (mobility, maneuvering, dexterity, sensors) and ASTM F45 for industrial mobile vehicles (navigation, obstacle avoidance). Custom test apparatuses and environments can be fabricated for an additional fee. Onsite testing at the NERVE Center is available as service use (NERVE staff assists to facilitate testing, collect data, record video, and generate report of usage) or self use (client conducts testing on their own). Offsite testing available with additional fees for travel and any costs for offsite location rental. Before booking, e-mail NERVE Center Assistant Director, Adam Norton - adam_norton@uml.edu - to review test plans and scope.
