Designing and evaluating sports equipment

Perform biomechanics research and sport equipment development through musculoskeletal modeling and simulation. Optimizing product performance is crucial when creating equipment for specific performance goals. The AnyBody Modeling System allows you to evaluate and improve equipment design through simulations of the human-body working in concert with its environments.

Examples:

  • Product development
  • Optimize product performance
  • Import CAD models of sports equipment (STL)
  • Evaluate and improve sports equipment design
  • Human-machine interaction analysis
  • Mechanics of sports equipment
  • Autodesk: Include the human body in your product design with the AnyBody Modeling System (Download)
