Xsens DOT Curriculum
Our physical, biological and technological worlds are merging like never before, and the potential of wearable technologies is only restricted by the extent of our imagination. This ground-breaking technology is opening the possibilities for entrepreneurs and innovators to transform their own industries. Recent developments in body-worn inertial motion trackers such as the Xsens DOT, allow an affordable and yet highly accurate method of measuring human motion, with strong ecological validity.
To enable new generations of students with this powerful tool, we’ve created a teaching curriculum that has been developed under the syllabus of the Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR), to achieve many educational outcomes across Biomechanics, Sports Science and STEM-based subjects. The curriculum incorporates a theoretical framework describing several important concepts across STEM and Biomechanics. It then provides practical lessons for students to work with the technology to enhance understanding. Finally, field-based assignments can be performed to enhance student’s ability to collect, analyse and report data, with assessment criteria provided. Collectively, this allows a robust educational framework to provide students with a real-life feel for a career in STEM.
About the Author
Dr Jason Konrath holds PhD in Biomechanics from Griffith University and a degree in Exercise and Health Science from the University of Western Australia. He is an expert in Biomechanics with a strong background in sensor-based motion capture and musculoskeletal modelling, using computational models to estimate muscle forces and joint contact forces during human locomotion. He has advised many sporting teams from all over the world for elite performance and injury prevention.

Education is an application of wearable technology. To demonstrate it and enable new generations of students with this powerful tool, we’ve created a teaching curriculum that has been developed under the syllabus of the Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR). It helps achieve many educational outcomes across Biomechanics, Sports Science, and STEM-based subjects.
The curriculum incorporates a theoretical framework describing key important concepts across STEM and Biomechanics. It also provides practical lessons for students to work with the wearable technology. Finally, it includes field-based assignments to develop student’s ability to collect, analyze, and report wearable sensors data.
The curriculum uses Xsens DOT wearable development platform and is available for education and research professionals to use in their research or integrate into educational programs. It allows a robust educational framework to provide students with a real-life feel for a career in STEM.
