Precision motion tracking with Xsens
Neways supports Xsens in the production of advanced motion tracking solutions used across entertainment, health & sports, and automation & mobility applications. Xsens’s sensor technology combines accelerometers, gyroscopes, magnetometers, GPS and barometers to capture highly detailed and true to life movement data.
The collaboration focuses on the production of highly sensitive inertial sensor hardware, where precision, reliability and process control are critical to overall system performance.
Challenges
Xsens’s inertial sensors are extremely sensitive to production conditions, soldering techniques and material tension. Even the smallest variations in manufacturing processes can directly impact sensor accuracy and long term reliability.
To guarantee consistent performance, Xsens required a manufacturing partner capable of operating highly controlled production processes with strict quality standards around assembly, soldering and testing. At the same time, the products needed to support demanding high tech applications ranging from blockbuster motion capture productions and elite sports analysis to industrial automation and autonomous mobility systems.
Neways supported Xsens with advanced manufacturing expertise, process control and high reliability production capabilities tailored to these highly sensitive sensor technologies.
Neways was our good conscience, making us go through things step by step so we could guarantee the consistent quality we see today
