In addition to our grant-funded research, the Human Performance Center also provides expertise and services for industry-sponsored projects. This support can range from consulting during the early stages of product development and study design to conducting full product validation studies. Previous collaborations have included the development and validation of consumer wearable activity monitors, evaluation of knee braces for pain management and movement control, and testing of an assistive lower-body robotic device.
The Human Performance Center has also partnered with Bay Area sports teams to administer large-group fitness testing, running gait evaluations, and return-to-play assessments for individual athletes.
Some of our partners include Intel, Basis, WholeYOU, Mitsui Chemicals, Tibion, Google, and the San Jose Sharks.
