We are working side by side with Groningen University to validate a new ergometer for persons and athletes in wheelchairs.

The device was developed by Groningen University and Lode: Servo engines, together with a load cell run on a feedback loop with a biomechanical model to reproduce overground behaviour.

MMTLab is involved with two of our master students, Paolo and Ridi, to design the calibration setup to validate the ergometer and understand its measurement accuracy in different conditions.
