What is PlateMate
PlateMate is a dual force plate system, with one plate for each foot, so that left and right limbs are measured independently. It is used for jumps, balance tasks, isometric strength tests and simple movement assessments, and the ForceMate software derives metrics such as jump height, peak force, rate of force development and reactive strength index. PlateMate is developed by CC Athletics in Odense, Denmark, and is an Omniathlete technical partner.
