Features that serve humanoid solutions
Every feature here is built for one reason: to compress the path from human demonstration to deployed humanoid policy.
Engineered for the humanoid data factory
Xsens Link system is built to run all day, across operators, environments and the full spectrum of human motion, from walking and running to jumping, crawling and climbing stairs. No cameras. No markers. No line-of-sight constraints.
Update rate for every sensor and every joint
End-to-end streaming latency
WiFi access point range, extendable
Internal storage, continuous recording
External hot-swappable battery life. With swappable packs, capture sessions can run effectively without limit.
Washing cycles, industrial-grade fabric
All-day wearable comfort
Lightweight, breathable fabric and an ergonomic fit keep operators comfortable through full-shift capture and back-to-back teleop sessions.
One-click sensor mounting
Secure one-click attachment holds sensor alignment across operators, sessions and environments. Less drift between captures, less wear on the suit.
Modular body setup
The system comes in full body, upper body and lower body configurations to match the task you are training.
Alternative: Strap-based systems Xsens Awinda
Wireless sensors on adjustable straps, fitted over everyday clothing. The Xsens Awinda platform delivers 50 m range, 12-hour per-sensor battery, quick donning and swapping between operators. Built for humanoid capture in the wild, in factories, on fields and across warehouses where carrying a full suit is not practical.
Plug into the stack you already use
Native integrations into the simulators, middleware and tools humanoid teams rely on. No adapters. No wrappers. Just connect.
Fuel your synthetic pipeline. Real human-movement data, retargeted and ready to seed the simulation, RL and imitation-learning runs that scale humanoid training.
ROS2
First-class ROS 2 driver. Pipe motion data into your perception, planning and control stack the moment it arrives.
ARM64
Native ARM64 Linux build of the Xsens Linux SDK. Runs directly on the robot’s onboard computer, NVIDIA Jetson, custom SoC or any ARM64 Linux platform. No Windows bridge, no emulation.
NVIDIA Isaac Sim
Native MCAP export for NVIDIA Isaac, available since the 2026.7 release. Move real captured human motion into your Isaac workflow as files, no custom converter needed. Live streaming is on the roadmap.
Coming soon
MuJoCo
Direct MuJoCo integration for RL policy training, imitation learning and physics-based evaluation of captured behaviors.
Coming soon
Into the DCC pipeline
Control and capture, at the same time
Low latency streaming from operator to robot. On-body recording so no data is ever lost. Every teleoperation session is also a training data session.
20 ms end-to-end latency
Stream full-body motion from operator to humanoid at 240 Hz with 20 ms latency. Fast enough for closed-loop manipulation and whole-body control.
WiFi access point
Dedicated WiFi 6E access point operating at 2.4, 5 and 6 GHz with 150 m range, extendable. Operate from any workspace without depending on site IT infrastructure.
10 minute on-body buffer
If the link ever drops, the suit keeps recording locally. Data is automatically recovered when the connection is restored.
Stream directly onto the humanoid
Linux receivers are built to fit modern robotics tech stacks. Stream motion straight into the robot compute, no Windows bridge required.
Manus & StretchSense finger tracking
Native integration for high-fidelity hand tracking. 20 DOF per hand for dexterous manipulation and fine contact tasks.
Scale without complexity
Run multiple operators on the same access point for multi-person capture, shared workspaces and parallel data collection.

Xsens HD Reprocessing Engine. Enhance your recorded data quality.
When a session ends, the patented Xsens fusion engine runs again over your raw IMU recording. This time with no latency budget, no streaming constraint and no compute ceiling. Two-pass smoothing. Longer integration windows. Higher-order solver passes that no live feed can afford. The hardest cases finally get the time they need: high impacts, high speeds, sudden direction changes, dense environments.
25 years of patented sensor fusion IP, given the time to do its best work. And every engine release lifts the quality of every recording you already own.
- Offline reprocessing through the patented Xsens fusion engine
- No latency or compute budget, full-fidelity solver passes
- Higher data quality than the live stream produces
- Engine improvements lift every recording you already own
