Myoton: Precise measuring device for analyzing muscle tension from Artec Design

The highlight product from Artec Design is the innovative Myoton device, which was specially developed to measure muscle tension. This device was developed in collaboration with the Estonian company Myoton and is a mixture of medical and research instrument. It is used by sports physicians to monitor the development of muscles in athletes and also in medical rehabilitation to monitor the state of muscle and tissue growth in patients. Particularly noteworthy is the use of the Myoton device on the International Space Station (ISS), where astronauts regularly use it to measure muscle tension in order to research muscle atrophy in zero gravity - a unique application that does not exist in this form elsewhere.

Development and innovation: Myoton as a non-invasive muscle measuring device

The Myoton device, originally started as a research project at the University of Tartu in Estonia, was further developed into a marketable product with Artec Design as the main technical partner. The first prototypes still used gravity for measurement, but the new design enables precise measurements at any angle and even in zero gravity. The Myoton is non-contact and measures muscle tension frequencies by analyzing the "sound" of the muscle, similar to a slow echo. This non-invasive approach allows fast and accurate recording of muscle activity and provides valuable data on muscle condition and tissue strength.

Long-term data and research: Myoton provides valuable scientific insights

With the Myoton, meaningful data can be collected through regular measurements over weeks and months, enabling a detailed analysis of muscle condition. The long-term data collected provides doctors and scientists with new insights into muscle function and development. Myoton has published a comprehensive list of all scientific studies conducted with the device on its website, underlining the device's wide range of applications. The Myoton has established itself as a valuable tool for research and medical diagnostics and impresses with its precision and wide range of applications.
