Research and Development

Artanim is a Innosuisse-recognized research institute conducting projects in close collaboration with Swiss and international universities, as well as industrial partners.

Our research focus on two strategic pillars:

The first pillar is medical research, where motion capture combined with 3D medical imaging is used to better understand individualized human joint structures and to improve diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders.

The second pillar develops virtual or augmented reality applications emphasizing real time interaction and using cutting edge motion capture technologies.

If you’re developing novel clinical solutions, designing real-time immersive environments, or exploring new frontiers in human–computer interaction, we’d love to partner with you or to bring your next project from concept to reality.
