- The Specialist in Motion Capture Places MotionSense(TM) Technology at the Service of Sport

Movea SA(www.movea.com/), the global leader in technology, patents, and products for motion-sensing applications, today announced a new partnership with Oxylane(www.oxylane-group.com/) to co-develop high-tech products dedicated to sport of the future. Under the terms of the agreement, Oxylane gains access to the most advanced motion-sensing technology on the market for use in athletic equipment and apparel sold in its Decathlon(www.decathlon.co.uk/EN/) stores.

To develop the pioneering athletic equipment, Movea will work directly with Oxylane product designers, offering its cutting edge motion-sensing microtechnology and expertise. This approach is at the core of Oxylane’s strategy to develop and commercialize increasingly innovating products which provide concrete solutions to the fast-changing sports segment.

“With Movea, Oxylane and its brands Geonaute (electronic solutions) and Nabaiji, (swimming), we have found a strong partner for the development of innovating products based on motion capture technology”, said Stéphane Marchioni, Electronic Products Manager at Oxylane.

“Oxylane chose Movea to commercialize innovations co-developed by our engineers, allowing us to benefit from their reputation in the field of sports”, said Sam Guilaumé, CEO, Movea SA. “We are eager to see these products commercialized and to continue sharing our respective know-how to drive R&D in sports.”

In its R&D laboratory, the start-up company headquartered at Grenoble (France), on the Minatec innovation campus, an international center for micro and nanotechnologies, designs microsensor measurement devices that can record, transcribe and analyze human motion. The MotionPod(TM), for example, a microsensor solution designed by Movea, includes a body movement control and measurement module for medical professionals.

Already firmly established with white label products in the health sector, the collaboration now establishes Movea’s position as the leader in motion capture applications for the sports market. Movea is more widely known to the general public under the name of Gyration, the brand name used for its consumer range of motion-sensing wireless Air Mice products.
