Floppy discs were considered a modern storage medium, modems made their characteristic sounds when dialling in, and motion capture was a technology reserved for a handful of pioneers. It was in that very year that prophysics laid the foundations, launching its first sales activities in Switzerland with a clear vision: to make motion analysis accessible, precise and practical.<\/p>\n<p>Step by step, the company grew. Around 2005, the first German universities came on board; by 2010, the entire DACH region had been established. In 2013, the company opened its first own premises in Kloten, followed in 2026 by a move to spacious offices in Opfikon near Zurich.<\/p>\n<p>Today, we can look back on over 900 satisfied customers, more than 60 installations per year and a community that drives us forward every day.<\/p>\n<h4 dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Usergroup Meeting 2026 at the ETH Z\u00fcrich<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>We celebrated our 30th anniversary together with our community, our partners and friends \u2013 and the 2026 User Group Meeting at ETH Zurich provided the perfect setting for it.<\/p>\n<p>The first day featured a packed and inspiring programme. Host Bill Taylor not only gave us access to ETH Zurich, but also provided exclusive insights into his new laboratory and ongoing research projects. Our speakers \u2013 Bill Taylor, Kirsten Albracht, Andreas Kranzl, Brian Horsak, Anne Katrin Brust, Gerrit B\u00fccken and Mayumi Mohan \u2013 enriched the day with technical presentations that went far beyond the scope of a traditional conference.<\/p>\n<p>We rounded off the evening in the ETH lecturers\u2019 foyer. With a breathtaking view over the rooftops of Zurich, good conversation and a birthday cake, we officially toasted 30 years of prophysics. A heartfelt thank you also goes to our long-standing partners Vicon, Cometa, AMTI, Contemplas, h\/p\/cosmos and Xsens, whose presence and contributions helped make the meeting a success.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Here\u2019s to the next 30 years!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>30 years of prophysics.
