About Us
C-Motion is the global leader in software tools for research biomechanics for processing 3D motion capture data.
C-Motion was created in 1997 to transfer the Move3D technology from the National Institutes of Health into the commercial market. Visual3Dâ„¢ is the product that resulted from this effort, and it was released commercially in mid 2001. C-Motion has since focused on the needs of the medical research, sports research, and rehabilitation communities with leading-edge 3D motion analysis capabilities.
Visual3D is hardware independent, marker set independent, functionally extensible, and has the most capable modeling capabilities available. Visual3D provides clinically validated, consistent results from motion capture data. Its analytical power and object architecture make it a compelling product for clinical assessments, visualizing 3D data, and measuring the performance of movement related therapies, animal research, sports related motion, virtual reality activities, and many other applications.
C-Motion continues to commit its resources to being on the forefront of motion analysis technology. Our vision is to make 3D movement assessments an expected and ubiquitous part of health care, sports, and industry. To that end, our goal is to make Visual3D the most empowering and advanced biomechanics research tool available anywhere.
Directions
The office is less than a one hour drive from Dulles (IAD) airport or Baltimore (BWI), except during rush hours.
It is also possible to take the Metro from Regan National Airport (DCA) to the Shady Grove station, and then take either a bus or a taxi to Germantown. This also takes an hour or more.
There is a Fairfield Inn Hotel in Germantown across the street from our office, and lots of restaurants nearby.
