Problem
Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) significantly impact musicians, with high prevalence rates among both amateur and professional players. Despite awareness of preventive measures, adherence to these programs remains low, contributing to the persistent issue of MSDs in this population.
Solution
Senssos offers data-driven biofeedback solutions designed for the prevention and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal disorders, with a specific focus on instrumental musicians. The platform integrates electromyography (EMG) and inertial measurement unit (IMU) sensors within wearable straps to capture detailed muscle activity and movement data. This data is processed to provide real-time, corrective feedback on posture and muscle engagement through an interactive digital avatar, or "digital twin," displayed on a mobile application. The system facilitates both online and offline data analysis, empowering users with actionable insights for self-management and enabling healthcare professionals to deliver enhanced preventive and rehabilitation services.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes instrumental musicians seeking to prevent or manage musculoskeletal disorders, as well as healthcare professionals and clinics specializing in physical rehabilitation and performance-related health.
Features
- Wearable sensor straps incorporating EMG electrodes and IMU sensors for precise tracking of muscle activation and kinematic data.
- Mobile application that visualizes a real-time digital twin of the user, augmented with biofeedback on posture and muscle activity.
- Real-time corrective feedback delivered through the digital twin to guide users in performing appropriate physical actions.
- Data processing capabilities for both online (real-time) and offline analysis of physiological and motion data.
- Docking base for mobile devices to enable mirroring of the application display onto external monitors for enhanced viewing.
- Data-driven insights for musculoskeletal disorder prevention and rehabilitation tailored for musicians.
