The sensor needs to recognise the shape of your body to deliver a good measurement.
Skin works best, so scan in your underwear where possible. Next best is tight non-reflective training clothes.
If you are scanned in open spaces, and need to wear your normal clothes, make sure they conform to the body as much as possible by removing baggy items. No baggy basketball shorts or long T-shirts unless they are clamped or tucked-in.
We need to see the ankles, so roll up trousers to mid calf, then clamp any loose cloth behind the leg and behind the knee using a large paper clip.
Hair must be in a bun behind the head. Hair must not touch the shoulders at any time.
Take tight training clothes with you to work for a scan. If you forget, make sure you remove your jacket, roll up the cuffs and clamp trousers. We cannot scan people wearing a skirt or dress. Taking off clothes is difficult in some environments (e.g. corporate environment). It is therefore important to prepare the clothing properly. The next figure shows the key facts of preparation.
The figure below shows examples of improper clothing. We do not see the exact shape of your body. The sensor needs to see the surface and outline of your body to measure correctly. The scan may start but the quality of the results will be compromised.
- Stretch denim - especially dark colours
- Polyester clothing
- Reflective and loose jewellery
- Silver lined socks
- Full body tattoos
- Thick ‘Afro-hair’ or shiny hair gel
The 3D Moovment Scan is offer by health professionals using a PC and a special sensor and it is used for TESTING. This should be set-up correctly by a licensed Moovment Specialist, so the end-user does not need to do anything.
- Give consent to be scanned and initially share your data with the Provider (you can revoke it afterwards).
- Register with your personal email. Answer a few basic questions.
- Stand approximately 2.5m in front of the sensor and copy the audiovisual instructions on the screen.
- If you do something other than the instructions, the system will ask you to repeat the movement.
- End the recording.
- The data is processed on the PC, and then sent to secure cloud storage (GDPR compliant).
- See your 3D-self and your results on the screen.
- Get feedback from a Moovment Specialist online or in-person.
- Get individualized exercise recommendations and advice in your Moovment Pro Portal account.
The 2D Moovment Pro scan can be conducted by the end-user anywhere using a mobile phone for TRACKING progress. The app is available at the app stores. There are few things to consider to get good results:
- wear tight clothing that is not the same colour as the background
- place the sensor upright on the front edge of a normal kitchen chair (approx 45cm from the floor), resting against some books or a large teacup.
- stand at a distance from the chair so that the whole body is visible on the screen - from head to toe
- stand facing the camera at all times.
- avoid people and animals walking between you and the screen during the scan
- watch the demonstration video, and practice along with the video. Copy the distance moved and the timing of the video
- press record and walk back to the stance position where you can see all of your body
- wait for the countdown to end, then copy the video on the screen
- watch the next video, and repeat the recording process (#6)
- check the quality of the recordings. Did it look like your usual movement - keep the recording. Did it look like a poor example of your usual movement - delete the recording
- send for analysis, or repeat the test
What NOT to do….
- do not use a crowded scan area. Objects in front of the camera partially blocking the view eg. plant, chair, animal. Furniture too close to the body preventing full movement eg. bed, door, bench, wall
- do not have the camera at an angle - tilted or rotated. Use a firm flat surface, not a cushion.
- do not hold the camera by hand. Put the camera on a flat firm surface.
- do not start the movement before the red Record button is pressed.
- do not move too fast or too slow - follow the video
- do not exit the app until you Send your scans (or deleted them)
Moovment is designed to record, analyse and report your movement, balance and posture. It does not score your performance of make any decisions on its own.
You can share your results with registered Providers who use Moovment software. They can review the results and offer you advice and exercises for improving function. Find a Provider.
Anyone currently using the Moovment Pro self-scan in beta version is being reviewed at not cost by Specialists at Moovment Coach International from Stockholm, Sweden. You can of course disconnect access in the Moovment Pro Portal.
Many people simply monitor their own progress over time and ask for only assistance when they need to change their training program.
Examples of exercises that we consider effective at improving function can be found here.
The scan is valuable for visualising how you move in order to identify your strengths and weaknesses. The scan protocol is standardised so the only thing that varies is your performance over time - hopefully in the direction of progressive improvement!
The analysis involves sophisticated computer algorithms for measuring in milliseconds and millimeters. Strategically chosen body parts are used to measure and document function such as balance, movement patterns and posture. Something normally reserved for elite athletes and movement laboratories.
Show the results to your health professional or a Moovment Specialist in order to get personalized advice about how you can improve your performance and hopefully avoid injury.
We want to keep you safe. If you as a client experience moderate pain or worse you may need to consult a health specialist.
If you experience no or mild pain you will be automatically offered a very generalized program for improving and maintaining good function and posture. This is NOT individualized advice based on the movement scan. You are urged to specifically get professional advice if you have special needs.

Note - if the person stands too close to the wall or an object, this may affect the result.
The ideal scan area should look like the one shown below.
- Spacious
- Symmetrical and even backdrop
- Indoor and without distractions
- Flat and non-reflective floor
- No obstacles in view of the sensor
There are some basic rules for conducting calibration:
- The background and the floor must be clear. There can be no activity on the screen.
- No people or objects should be visible on the screen.
- No bright lights or direct sunlight shining on the sensor or the floor.
- The sensor must be still and stable, unlikely to move or vibrate during the scan or between scans. If it does move, you must calibrate again.
To calibrate and start scanning, first follow these steps:
- Open Moovment Scan and login.
- Use the measures on the Setup screen (first screen) to adjust the camera, the floor, or the lighting until all the checkboxes are ticked. Avoid leaving fingerprints on the front of the sensor.
- Click "OK" to start scanning.
- If the framerate is low and the system won’t start, then the conditions are not right for scanning. It is also possible that Windows is doing an update in the background (hence slowing down the computer) - wait until the update is complete.
Advanced calibration of sensor alignment (optional)
- Carefully place a smartphone on the sensor, and run a "spirit level" app to check that the sensor angle and the phone angle are similar. (Make sure the phone button or case are not giving you false values.)
- If the phone measures do not correspond with the calibration screen, then the firmware on the Kinect Azure sensor may need to be updated.
- Restart Moovment Scan and wait 5-10 seconds.
- Compare the angles seen on the Setup screen with the smartphone angles again.
- A perfect scan area with correct calibration will show a 3D image with clear features, a flat floor, and plenty of room around the subject, without shadows or interference.

In a nutshell, please make sure you can check the following items:
Your hardware fulfills all requirements. | |
You have plugged the sensor into a high-speed USB 3 port (marked blue). | |
Your graphics card driver is updated to the latest version. | |
All Windows Updates are done and nothing is queueing in the background. | |
No software (like Files on demand for One Drive) is running in the background and uses a significant amount of resources of your computer. | |
If there are two graphics cards available, then make sure that Moovment Scan software is using the dedicated graphics card. |
Reason 1
Your computer does not fulfill the recommended hardware requirements. Especially the red marked specifications are of high importance.
Hardware/Software | Specification |
---|---|
Operating system | Windows 10 or Windows 11 |
Processor | Intel Core i7 or better is recommended (64-bit, Physical quad-core 3.1 GHz or faster) |
Memory | 8GB RAM or more |
Free disk space on system drive | 15GB or more |
Graphics memory running Microsoft XboxOne® Kinect (Kinect v2) sensor | Nvidia GeForce 940 2GB or better |
Graphics memory running Microsoft Azure Kinect sensor | Nvidia GeForce RTX series
or better. Note that it has to be an Nvidia device since the software is running with the CUDA platform |
Connection | 2 free, dedicated USB 3.0 port |
Display | Touchscreen recommended but not mandatory |
Reason 2
The sensor needs to be plugged into a high-speed USB 3 port since the amount of data processed is a heavy load and USB 2 ports cannot handle it.
You can identify the different USB2 (black) and USB3 (blue) ports as follows:
The symbol contains a double S.
Reason 3
Nvidia Experience Driver is not installed or not up-to-date. Go to https://www.nvidia.com/en-gb/geforce/drivers/ and download the Auto-Update-File and update the Nvidia driver. Restart the system after that.
Reason 4
Windows Updates are running in the background. Finish all of the updates and restart the system. You may need to repeat this several times until Windows is fully updated.
Reason 5
Third-party software is running in the background and uses a major amount of processing resources. One example is Microsoft's OneDrive "Files on Demand". This tutorial (click) shows how to switch off this functionality. should be switched off.
Reason 6
Moovment Scan runs with the wrong graphics card if there is more than one graphics card available. In order to select another graphics card right-click the Moovment Scan icon on your desktop and check if you can select another graphics processor (as shown in the image below). Try each of them.
- Activate Show hidden items (click here to see how to do it) in your File Explorer in Windows

A poor scan environment contains obstacles, uneven floor, poor lighting or too little space and this will negatively affect scan quality.
Please avoid the following simple mistakes:
- One or more people standing in the view area of the sensor during calibration.
- Another person standing inside the sensor’s view area while scanning. The entire view area should be empty except for the person being scanned.
- Moving the sensor during the scan. That includes an unstable floor that moves the sensor or the floor stand.
- A person or animal walking between the scan person and the sensor.
- Loose clothing.
- Long loose hair or a ponytail. Make sure long hair is tied up behind the head.
- Not having enough space around the scan person. At least 1 m (3’) is required around the subject, in all directions.
- Using the wrong floor surface. Thick rubber (gym) floor mat, plush pile carpet, or reflective surfaces like marble or polished wood do not scan well. Use a non-reflective floor or tight weave doormat that covers most of the scan area, especially in front of and behind the person.
If you are a specialist that has access to multiple libraries you need to decide at the start of any scan session which library you want to scan to. The video below shows how to select the library at the start of Moovment Scan and how to select a different library while Moovment Scan runs.
We prefer to show the data on screen using the latest 3D visualisation techniques.
End-users can see their results when they login to the Client Moovment.Pro Portal, or on-screen at the test station immediately after a Moovment Scan.
Moovment Specialists can see the results when they login to the Moovment.Pro Portal, on-screen immediately after a Moovment Scan, and in Moovment Lab.
Some people and organisations prefer PDF reports or tabulated files. It is possible to print, send, save and export the Summary report (6 pages) and/or the Biomechanics report (8 pages) using the Moovment.Pro Portal, from Moovment Lab and from Moovment Scan. Furthermore, a backup-functionality of Client data is provided for medical organisations in order to meet the regulations for medical records.
Examples of Summary report and Biomechanics report:
We want to keep your clients safe. If your client experiences moderate pain or worse they may need to consult a health specialist. This is indicated with notes based on their answers (see screenshots below).
If they experience no or mild pain they will be automatically offered a very generalised program for improving and maintaining good function and posture. This is NOT individualised advice based on the movement scan. Your clients won't get any automated programs if you already assigned an exercise program to them.

The Client is the Controller of the data while Qinematic is the Processor of the data.
Clients can authorise an Organisation to see their data. Once they authorised the Client can revoke access at any time. There are currently four categories that can be selected for sharing (see in the table below).
Data type | Description |
---|---|
3D scans | Scans recorded with the Windows-based Moovment Scan (done by an Organisation) |
2D scans | Scans recorded with the Clients phone using the Moovment.Pro native app |
Goals and Exercises | Goals that area created by the Client or created by Specialists on behalf of the Client. Exercise programs that are automatically created by the system or by a Specialist. |
Surveys | Surveys (automatically assigned/assigned by a Specialist) answered by the Client. |
As the Controller of the data the Client can add/remove access to the above mentioned data categories at any time via the Moovment.Pro Portal with authenticated personal login. In the first instance, the scan provider (an Organisation who is offering services using Moovment Software Suite) can see data shared with them so they can give advice. The Organisation decides on an Administrator role which Specialist has authorisation to login to the Moovment.Pro Portal or Moovment Lab to view the data that is made available for view.
By default, any 3D scans conducted by an Organisation will be viewable for that Specialist until the Client revokes their access through the Moovment.Pro account. In other words, the Client is in control of their data. Qinematic will process their data based on their instructions.
No.
Only your Organisations Specialists with granted rights (organised by your Administrator) and the Client in question have access to the Clients data. Our strict Privacy Policy protects all Moovment users.
