The MVN system is controlled by a software application called MVN Studio. MVN Studio is a 64-bit

application for Windows 7 and 8. There are three versions of MVN Studio: MVN Studio, MVN Studio

PRO, and MVN Studio BIOMECH.

Additional software packages are available for users with specific needs:

For users wishing to use the facilities offered by MVN, such as the biomechanical model and various

other dedicated functionalities, for visualizing and collecting data the MVN Software Development Kit

(MVN SDK) is available, where users can create their own user interface.

MVN Studio PRO comes enabled with the capabilities of a real-time streaming interface from MVN to

Autodesk Motion Builder® and Maya®. Additionally, the MVN remote control and MVN time-code plug-

in are enabled for users who wish to accurately measure the time over which recordings are made (for

example to facilitate synchronization with other devices such as cameras and audio equipment that also

accept time-code as a synchronization means).

To stream to Siemens PLM software, the Siemens Tecnomatix streamer is available with MVN Studio

BIOMECH.
