ChironMotion Vision
Read full descriptionHide full description
ChironMotion Vison is an iOS application designed for structured jump-movement analysis using camera-based motion capture and on-device computation. The app supports three standard jump protocols: CMJ, SJ, and DJ. Users can create a personal profile, enter basic body information, and select the appropriate test protocol before each session. A built-in calibration process helps improve consistency before testing begins. During recording, the app captures movement through the camera and analyzes the jump sequence automatically. Key phases such as takeoff and landing are identified to support performance evaluation. The app calculates core biomechanics metrics, including jump height, flight time, RSI, and related movement indicators. Protocol-specific metrics are also presented to help users review jump quality in more detail. Results are displayed in a clear interface with summary cards and visual charts for easier interpretation. The app also supports offline video analysis for imported high-frame-rate footage. All analysis is performed locally on the device to help protect user privacy. ChironMotion Vison is intended for training, performance review, and educational reference, and is not designed for medical diagnosis or treatment.

3DSeg/JointAngles
This app measures three-dimensional angles of body segments and joints in real-time using your iPhone's motion sensors. It is designed for researchers, clinicians, and trainers to analyze movement without external hardware. Data can be exported for further analysis.
- Real-time 3D angle display at 60 Hz
- Six selectable Cardan/Euler rotation sequences
- Calibrate to any starting position
- Built-in angle time-series plot
- CSV export via iOS Share Sheet
- Works completely offline

3D Seg/Joint Angles measures three-dimensional Cardan/Euler angles of body segments and joints using your iPhone's built-in motion sensors — no external hardware required. Designed for biomechanics researchers, clinicians, physiotherapists, athletic trainers, and students, the app uses your iPhone's accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer to compute the three rotational angles (about the X, Y, and Z axes) that describe how a body segment or joint has moved from a defined starting position. HOW IT WORKS Place the iPhone on a body segment (e.g., thigh, shank, forearm). Press "Set Initial Position" to define the reference frame. The app then continuously reports the three angles — in degrees — that describe the 3D rotation from that starting position to the current position, in real time at 60 Hz. ROTATION SEQUENCES Six standard Cardan/Euler rotation sequences are supported: • X-Z-Y (default, recommended for most lower-limb joints) • X-Y-Z • Y-X-Z • Y-Z-X • Z-X-Y • Z-Y-X Select the sequence that matches your anatomical convention. Angles are always displayed in X, Y, Z order regardless of the sequence chosen. PHONE AXES • X axis — points to the right side of the phone (medial-lateral; flexion/extension) • Y axis — points toward the top of the phone (longitudinal; internal/external rotation) • Z axis — points out of the screen (anterior-posterior; abduction/adduction) Positive and negative angle signs follow the right-hand rule applied to each physical axis of the phone. RECORDING AND EXPORT Start and stop recording with a single tap. After recording, the three angles are plotted over time directly in the app. Export the data as a CSV file via email, AirDrop, or any share destination for further analysis in Excel, MATLAB, or R. KEY FEATURES • Real-time 3D angle display at 60 Hz • Six selectable Cardan/Euler rotation sequences • Calibrate to any starting position • Built-in angle time-series plot • CSV export via iOS Share Sheet • Works completely offline — no internet required • No account or login needed • All data stays on your device IMPORTANT NOTES • For accurate results, hold the phone still during calibration • The Z axis requires the magnetometer to be valid — keep the phone away from strong magnetic fields • This app is intended for research, education, and rehabilitation purposes. It is not a certified medical device.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: 3DSeg/JointAngles at none against ChironMotion Vision's 6. ChironMotion Vision's advantage is iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.2). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
