Vestibular disorders affect millions of people worldwide and remain one of the most challenging conditions for clinicians to assess and treat. Professionals increasingly seek tools that provide objective metrics, structured rehabilitation pathways, and reliable technological support. Responding to this need, the Otoneuro System emerges as a new benchmark in vestibular assessment and therapy. The purpose is to make vestibular rehabilitation more precise, efficient, and aligned with real clinical workflows.
A Fully Integrated Vestibular Assessment and Rehabilitation System
One of the biggest differentiators of the Otoneuro System is its ability to unify the essential components of vestibular rehabilitation. Instead of working with separate devices, incompatible software, or subjective evaluation methods, clinicians gain access to an integrated ecosystem that supports the entire journey from assessment to treatment.
At the heart of the system is a medical‑grade static force plate, engineered for high‑resolution analysis of postural control. Clinicians can:
Measure stability, sway, and balance parameters with exceptional accuracy
Compare objective data across sessions
Use the same platform for interactive training exercises and gamified therapy that enhances engagement and motivation

The system incorporates a highly accurate inertial measurement unit (IMU) capable of capturing head kinematics with precision. This allows clinicians to:
Objectively evaluate vestibulo‑ocular reflex (VOR) function
Assess cervical proprioception
Deliver biofeedback‑based proprioceptive training to improve cervical control

Virtual reality environments expand the scope of therapy by recreating sensory and visual stimuli that are difficult to reproduce safely in a traditional clinic. These controlled VR scenarios are highly effective for:
Visual vertigo
Motion sensitivity
Gaze stabilisation deficits
Optokinetic stimulation
Smart Clinical Software that Guides Every Step
All components of the Otoneuro System operate through a central software. The software provides structured, evidence‑based assessment protocols and guides clinicians through standardised actions that improve reliability and documentation.
This approach supports clinical reasoning rather than replacing it. Clinicians remain in full control, while the system ensures consistency, accuracy and efficiency during both evaluation and rehabilitation.
By unifying force plate data, inertial sensor information and virtual reality engagement, the software offers a holistic view of patient performance and progress. This integration is central to improving outcomes in a field that traditionally relies on fragmented assessment tools.

A Professional Setup Built for Everyday Clinical Demands
The Otoneuro System has been designed not only for advanced functionality but also for practicality in fast‑paced clinical environments.
The Clinician Station includes a dedicated medical cart with organised storage for virtual reality headsets and an inertial sensor. A desktop computer runs the clinical software, while a monitor displays assessment metrics and therapy responses in real time. Everything is positioned for ergonomic workflow and quick access.
The Patient Station prioritises safety and comfort. It features a medical‑grade static force plate, automatically adjustable safety bars and a patient‑facing monitor that provides clear instructions and visual feedback. This structured environment increases patient confidence and allows clinicians to perform evaluations and exercises with predictability and control.

Join the Future of Vestibular Rehabilitation With the Otoneuro System
The Otoneuro System marks a significant shift in how vestibular care is delivered. It offers clinicians a powerful and intuitive solution that enhances accuracy, structure and confidence at every stage of the rehabilitation journey.
From objective assessment to immersive therapeutic intervention, the Otoneuro System represents the future of vestibular rehabilitation.
