Amos Biomechanics is the premier resource for elevating the performance of your athletic products or wearable electronics. With over 20 years of applying biomechanical principles to product innovation, we bring a wealth of experience and specialized skills to every project.
Sports Biomechanics
Sports biomechanists study a broad array of attributes which benefit athletes. Performance is often the driving factor, but promoting athlete safety and comfort are equally important. Amos Biomechanics has led teams studying fundamental and applied research concepts such as running mechanics, soccer traction, agility speed, footwear stability, cushioning systems, fit, and others.
Wearable Electronics
Advances in wearable electronics have enabled monitoring of human performance beyond the lab environment. Wearables that capture human movement in sport, workplace, and clinical environments are becoming more common. Amos Biomechanics has guided technology integration, identified relevant user applications, developed algorithms, and evaluated performance for footwear and apparel wearables. Let us help you develop wearables that are ergonomic, functional, and user-friendly.
Product Innovation
With over 20 years of experience guiding product innovations in agile start-up teams and in large organizations, Amos Biomechanic has the expertise you need for your project. Through over 150 research reports, we have influenced the successful delivery of many products such as the Mercurial soccer shoe, the Merlin soccer ball, and the Nike Free training shoe as well as multiple wearable electronics footwear, sleeves, and gloves.
Novel Research Paradigms
Many of the most exciting research questions do not have pre-existing research paradigms in the scientific literature. At Amos Biomechanics, we create tailored research tools, protocols, and analysis techniques to meet your needs. Examples of past projects include quantifying ankle proprioception during game-relevant movements, measuring ball visibility, evaluating backpack fit, developing tools for real-world data capture, and integrating multiple technologies within an 84,000 square foot research lab.
Sensory Perception
Perceptual response to a product is just as important as the mechanical effect the product has on the body. If it doesn't feel good, even the most effective intervention may be rejected by users. Techniques such as structured surveys, monofilament sensory probes, and specialized visual acuity protocols are used to quantify perceptual response so your users like using your product.
Technical Client Communications
Most research or product innovation projects require on-going technical communications with clients. Early in the design phase it is important to map out the user journey for each persona who will interact with the product. During product development, regular updates help maintain alignment. Following initial product delivery, continuing support is necessary to ensure successful adoption of the product. Amos Biomechanics can be the translation layer between client needs and product capabilities to support product success.
