Sports wearable development.
From pressure sensors and IMUs to a product that performs in the real world.

Hardware. Firmware. Textile integration. Biosensing.
Every discipline in one team. Because the gap between a working prototype and a sports wearable that survives real use is where most projects break down.

DANU SmartSocks — from pre-launch to full product management.

DANU Sports developed an athletic sock with integrated pressure sensors and IMUs to track performance and prevent injury in real time. Before market launch they needed an engineering partner to validate the hardware and firmware and fix what wasn’t working.

What we did:

  Full hardware and firmware review before launch
→  Bug fixing and performance optimisation
  New feature implementation post-launch
  Now: full ongoing product management

DANU Sports now relies on Elitac Wearables as their external engineering team. This is the kind of long-term partnership we build.

Xsens Link Suit: the golden standard in motion capture

The Xsens Link Suit is the industry reference for sensor-based motion capture in sports research, industrial manufacturing, film and gaming. Elitac Wearables contributed to the development of this system by integrating Xsens’ IMU technology into a wearable textile garment that performs to pro-athlete and research-grade specifications under continuous movement.

Xsens partnered up with Elitac Wearables for:

  • Innovation consultancy

  • Full garment & accessories development

  • Improved performance, comfort & quality

  • Organising manufacturing and pricing

What we can integrate into your sports wearable

Our team has experience in developing wearables and integrating sensors, that can monitor:

Motion, biomechanics & posture

  • Accelerometers
  • IMU’s (inertial measurement units)
  • Gait sensing
  • Pressure sensors
  • Stretch sensors

Physiological monitoring

  • PPG (heart rate, SpO2, HRV)
  • ECG (electrocardiogram)
  • EMG (Muscle activity & fatigue)
  • EDA (electrodermal activity / stress)
  • Core body temperature
  • Skin temperature

Environment & connectivity

  • GPS
  • Gas (VOC’s)
  • Light
  • Wireless (BLE, ANT+)

We select sensors based on your use case, form factor, power specifications, budget and production requirements. Not from a standard list.

Elevate athletic performance with smart wearables

Elitac Wearables designs and develops innovative sports wearables that provide real-time performance insights, injury prevention, and enhanced recovery. Our technology helps athletes and coaches make data-driven decisions.

Elitac Wearables lab team at work

What we can integrate into your sports wearable

Our team has experience in developing wearables and integrating sensors, that can monitor:

  • Heart rate and ECG
  • Muscle fatigue (EMG) and posture
  • Biomechanical movement patterns (Gait)

We do so by implementing, testing and developing a variety of sensors suitable for wearable technology. For example:

  • PPG
  • Dry electrode technology (for ECG, EMG, EMS, EDA, and more)
  • IMU’s (innertial measuerment units)
  • Accelerometers
  • (Core body) temperature
  • etc.
