Movesense and Labfront Partner to Bring an Advanced IMU/ECG Device to Health Researchers Worldwide

BOSTON, Massachusetts/May 8th, 2023.  Labfront, a global startup specializing in health data analytics, has partnered with Movesense, a world leader in wireless wearable sensors, to offer an innovative research solution. The partnership brings together Labfront’s no-code digital biomarker collection and analytics platform with Movesense’s industry-leading wearable sensor technology, advancing physiological data collection for health researchers.

“We’re excited to partner with Labfront to make our devices more accessible to health researchers worldwide,” said Jussi Kaasinen , Movesense CEO. “Labfront no-code solution makes utilizing Movesense’s high-resolution IMU and ECG sensor data easier than ever.” 

Labfront has already been used by over 50 top academic institutions, including Stanford, Harvard, and MIT, since launching in 2021. The integration of Labfront’s platform with Movesense’s wearable sensors will enable researchers to collect and analyze high-quality ECG, heart rate, heart rate variability, and motion measurements without the need for SDKs or APIs.

“We look forward to working with Movesense to enable the future of remote and hybrid research,” said Chris Peng, CEO of Labfront. “One of the new devices being supported is Movesense Medical, a medical version of the popular IMU/ECG device. It’s part of our commitment to provide our clinical customers more options as well.”

As part of this partnership, Labfront will support two different Movesense ECG/IMU devices, both sporting high-resolution raw data streaming so researchers can use data unavailable from the majority of consumer wearables. Movesense Medical is certified as a class IIa medical device accessory, in conformity with the EU medical device regulation MDR 2017/745.

The collaboration between Labfront and Movesense aims to benefit a wide range of researchers by streamlining the process for collecting and analyzing high-quality physiological data.
