DataLITE Wireless Electronic Goniometers for Wrist and Elbow Joint Range of Motion

Measure Joint Range of Movement in Two-Axis

Simply attach an electronic goniometer over a joint to be measured, and as the joint moves, the goniometer measures the changes in the angle between its two end points. Data is transmitted in real-time to a compatible interface.

Wireless DataLITE goniometers provide total freedom of movement, a key feature when studying natural, dynamic joint movements in real-world environments.

Wireless Twin-Axis Electronic Goniometers

In general, there are no fixed rules governing which size of sensor is most suitable for a particular joint; this depends on the size of the subject. The sensor must be capable of reaching across the joint so that the two end blocks can be mounted where least movement occurs between the skin and underlying skeletal structure. In certain circumstances more than one size of sensor will be appropriate. The following table is given for guidance only and refers to an adult population. Size used will vary within paediatrics.

Goniometric data encompasses a wide array of measurements: Angular displacements, velocities, and accelerations; minimum, maximum, and average values; repetitions; event counts above or below a set threshold; percentage of time within or outside set limits; time to reach minimum or maximum values, among others.

¹Life test results have been collected by cycling the sensors through movements that would happen during everyday use. For example, placing a sensor on an adult elbow and moving from the neutral position to maximum flexion and back to the neutral position, the unit will function for typically 600,000 cycles.

Frequently Asked Questions

An electronic goniometer is a device used to measure joint angles and movements. It provides a precise, non-invasive method to quantify joint position and range of motion in real-time.

The goniometer is placed over a joint, with its end blocks fixed at two points across the joint. As the joint moves, the goniometer measures the change in the angle between the two points.

Both versions function identically, the main difference is that the wired goniometer is connected directly to the data collection device via a cable, while the wireless goniometer transmits data remotely.

Our electronic goniometers have an accuracy of ±2º measured over a range of ±90º and repeatability of 1º measured over a range of 90º.

The goniometer sensor is compatible with DataLITE PIONEER, ADVANCE, EXPLORE wireless interfaces, as well as DataLOG, DataLINK, Amplifier, or 3rd party wired interfaces.

Yes, our goniometers are designed to be lightweight and flexible, so they can be comfortably worn under clothing without hindering movement.

The battery life of the wireless goniometer is up to 12 hours, and it uses a rechargeable Li-Ion Polymer battery.

The wireless goniometer has a transmission range of up to 30 meters.

Yes, the goniometers can be used on any joint, and the size of the sensor should be chosen based on the size of the joint and the subject.
