USABILITY

Easy to set up. Easy to use.

Historically, force plates were notoriously difficult to use and their data was notoriously difficult to interpret.

ForceDecks changes that. Simply pair with your plates via the ForceDecks app, select your patient, perform a test and watch their results appear immediately, in terminology that makes sense to you and your patient.

VERSATILITY

Assess jumps, strength, asymmetry and more.

ForceDecks automatically detects and assesses over 20 different movements, from squats to jumps and from isometric strength to functional tests, such as sit-to-stand and balance assessments. There’s a test for almost any patient or musculoskeletal pathology.

ForceDecks Vision: Force data and video, together at last.

ForceDecks Vision helps make complicated force data simple.

Just use your iPhone or iPad camera to capture videos of your athletes as they perform any ForceDecks test, and see your force data and footage automatically synchronized, annotated and ready to jump to at any moment.

Is your athlete’s knee collapsing at the end of the eccentric phase and resulting in force asymmetries? Simply tap, scrub and show them.

Introducing Norms: integrated normative data.

We know that force plate data can be intimidating and overwhelming. Norms help overcome these challenges.

A common question from athletes is

“Was that result good?”

With Norms, you can now answer that question with confidence.

Based on millions of data points and integrated directly into

VALD Hub

reports, Norms give you robust, reliable reference points and help bring context to your athletes’ data.
