IMU Integration | Qualisys

Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) provide data on linear and angular motion, by using a combination of accelerometers and gyroscopes and sometimes also magnetometers. Qualisys provides integration with IMUs from several leading vendors and the means to get effortless synchronization between motion capture data and IMU data, through the QTM software. Qualisys can currently integrate with IMUs from XSens, Delsys, Cometa/Myon, and Noraxon.

Supported IMU Manufacturers

  • Xsens
  • Cometa/Myon
  • Delsys
  • Noraxon

Export .TSV

Export 3D/6DOF/force/analog data to tab separated value files, for analysis in for example Microsoft Excel.

MATLAB & LabVIEW export

Export 3D/6DOF/force/analog data to MATLAB and LabVIEW for further analysis.

IMUs - feature photo

By combining data from Qualisys optical motion capture systems with data from IMUs, it is possible to harness the strength from both systems and capture data in scenarios where line-of-sight to cameras can be an issue.
