Indeed, CTC is equipped with a biomechanical laboratory, “the living lab” with various tools: instrumented treadmills, motion capture, accelerometers, EMG, power platform etc…

These tools and CTC expertise allow to analyze the performance of different products (footwear or leather goods) when they are used. CTC platform allows to benchmark different product designs in order to highlight the most relevant product for a given use.

CTC biomechanical platform, the «living lab», also permits to recover trajectories and efforts related to the real use of leather goods. These parameters are then transmitted to a robotic cell developed by CTC. This robotic cell tests products in an accelerated way during these situations of use.
You will finally be introduced to “CTC walking and running simulator”.
Indeed, thanks to its biomechanical platform CTC developed this special machine. Biomechanical parameters are entered into the machine and the machine is running, while measuring technical parameters of the shoe, using the product in the same way as if carried by a human. This unique system is patented.

Learn how shoe and leather goods manufacturers use CTC innovative tools to accelerate the process of product development in the face of ever-increasing collection and development rates
