BETTER PERFORMANCE THROUGH SMART, EXPERT MAPPING
Werkman BLACK is the first gait mapping system that can distinguish landing, stance and break-over in time and movement. These data are shown in different images and in a 3D animation that can be played back at different speeds. Werkman BLACK measures all 4 legs, and can be used on both hard and soft surfaces with the horse walking or trotting in a straight line.
The eye cannot follow a horse’s movement, but high-precision sensors (1140 Hertz) make this movement visible. The information is converted into objectively interpretable data, in the form of a 3D animation and visual representation.
This enables the following:
- Mapping the gait: A measurement takes approximately one minute. Including data interpretation, you receive a clear picture of the results within five minutes.
- Quantify and compare the data to a previous measurement on the same horse.
- Communicate and share the measurement report easily and quickly using an email link.

WHAT WE TRACK
The system was developed to complete the actual measurement in approximately one minute. It takes less than five minutes to send and interpret the data. Werkman BLACK measures the following variables:
