Xsens will demonstrate the world’s first wearable 3D body motion tracking system based on consumer grade MEMS sensors at the Las Vegas convention.
Wearable 3D body motion tracking is enabling the next wave of innovation in cloud-connected wearable sports, fitness, healthcare and gaming sensor accessories for smartphones. Real-time 3D body motion data enables the development of apps that can recognize and classify complex motions such as sports techniques by digitizing your exact movements for immediate feedback and live sharing.
Juniper Research, a market analyst, calls wearables “the next smart thing” and estimates the market to reach $1.5 billion by 2014. IHS IMS Research estimates the wearables market for infotainment, fitness, wellness and healthcare to reach $6 billion by 2016.
The technology demonstrator can be viewed from January 8 to January 11, 2013 at the International CES tradeshow in Las Vegas at LVCC South Hall 2 – MEMS TechZone booth 25321.
