Understand Movement as it Actually Happens

Accurately capture real world ground reaction forces (GRFs) and turn them into actionable insights, no lab, force plates or treadmills required.

XO-SOLE: Authentic Movement. Authentic Data.

Many systems can measurement movement in theory, but only a few can measure it in real life. XO-SOLE is the first wearable solution to make lab-grade 3D ground reaction force data accessible in the field, clinic, or on the court. By capturing authentic movement where it actually happens, XO-SOLE helps you understand balance, loading, efficiency, and injury risk in real contexts, not in a controlled simulation.

Key Benefits

The number one.

Real-world insights for real decisions.

Capture authentic movement data without relying on a lab or constrained trials.

The number two.

A biomechanics lab you can wear

Portable, lightweight, and easy to use across environments, activities, and populations.

The number three.

Data you can actually use

The XO-SOLE Dashboard transforms complex force data into clear, actionable insights, no manual interpretation required.

Validation

Proven By Science

The XO-SOLE PRO has been carefully validated against gold-standard lab equipment, including instrumented treadmills and force plates, confirming its precision in measuring ground reaction forces. In a study of 63 participants, it demonstrated high accuracy and proved to be highly reliable for analyzing human movement in real-world settings.

Smarter Insights. Instantly Delivered.

From setup to analysis, XO-SOLE PRO does the work for you. Capture accurate 3D GRF data in real time or onboard the insoles, then receive instant reports through the XO-SOLE Dashboard, powered by Smartfoam technology and machine learning.

Instead of manual calibration or complex post-processing, the XO-SOLE Dashboard measures key movement metrics like gait symmetry, loading patterns, and movement efficiency automatically. Whether you’re working in the lab, clinic, or field, XO-SOLE makes capturing and understanding complex movement simple, fast, and reliable.

What's Inside?

Inside the XO-SOLE

Engineered with XO-NANO’s patented Smartfoam, the XO-SOLE is built to capture real movement accurately and reliably. Each insole is built from a continuous layer of Smartfoam that captures forces across the entire foot, revealing exactly how and where load is being applied with every step.

As the Smartfoam compresses, force data is captured directly within the insole and combined with motion data from a built-in 9-axis IMU, which tracks acceleration, rotation, and direction. Together, these inputs are translated into a complete 3D GRF profile, giving you a clear picture of how the body interacts with the ground during real-world movement.

Every detail is designed for performance and usability: Bluetooth (BLE) connectivity for wireless data transfer, up to 14-hours of battery life, and a lightweight design under 100 grams, or 3.5 oz, per insole. Available in men’s sizes 4–18, the XO-SOLE offers lab-grade biomechanics without the lab, giving athletes, clinicians, and researchers freedom to measure movement anywhere.
