Hardware
The Xsens MVN product line has three hardware versions: MVN Awinda Starter, MVN Awinda, and MVN Link. They all allow quick setup and lab-quality data.
Both MVN Awinda versions use 17 wireless sensors which are fitted on the body with adjustable straps. Its portability makes MVN Awinda ideal for use in groups and education.
MVN Link operates on 17 trackers wired sensors that are fitted on the body with a Lycra suit. It ensures even more accurate data recording and allows for a further recording range. Additionally, MVN Link features full GNSS support.
All three hardware versions have their own specific features, compare them using the overview below, or check out the full comparison table.

Customer cases
Team Sunweb
Read how Xsens and OCON helped Team Sunweb get their best bike fits. Team Sunweb now has a unique advantage: astonishingly precise bike fittings performed by OCON using Xsens MVN Analyze, which fit exactly to their riders’ physiology. This helps riders avoid injuries and achieve world-beating speeds in the process.
Exeter Chiefs
Read how rugby team the Exeter Chiefs uses Xsens MVN Analyze. “Using a marker-based motion capture system required a large number of sensors to be stuck on each player. This leads to a minimum of 10 minutes in preparation time before entering the motion capture lab. With the Xsens MVN, adjusting the sensors, collecting the limb lengths and then completing the calibration is a lot quicker and a lot less painful for the players.”
