Codamotion, at the forefront of design for active marker motion analysis systems for over 20 years are proud to announce a fully integrated 4 marker rigid body cluster. Pioneered in-house to eliminate the need for wires to active markers the sophisticated 4-marker rigid cluster is both straightforward and quick to attach and remove from different limb contours. For use in real-time with C-Motion's Visual 3D or with your own analysis algorithms the Codamotion Cluster is an elegant addition to our active marker family of products.

Manufactured utilising selective laser sintering rapid manufacturing technology the clusters are lightweight yet have good rigidity and durability. Available in two sizes; large and small with adjustable straps the cluster can easily accommodate different limb sizes which make them ideal for a range of movement analysis subjects and applications.

David Mitchelson, Codamotion's Chairman explains:

"We are constantly seeking to take advantage of the latest advances in electronics, optics and manufacturing technology to enhance our products for 3D movement analysis. These lightweight, completely wireless and self identifying clusters are the latest embodiment of this philosophy. They incorporate advances in miniaturisation of electronics and battery technology stimulated by the mobile telecoms industry and the superb flexibility of selective laser sintering (SLS) for complex mechanical component manufacture. The experience and skills we have gained in developing the clusters is also being applied to other exciting future additions to our family of products."

For added portability and convenience clusters are fully chargeable via a mini USB port enabling an operator to charge them directly from a laptop or desktop. With programmable marker ID's and full compatibility with existing Codamotion marker technologies, you can rest assured that clusters will fit in with the rest of your Codamotion family.
