About
Dr. Susanne M. van der Veen is a leading researcher in biomechanics and rehabilitation engineering, with a focus on accessible motion analysis technologies. Her work bridges the gap between clinical needs and affordable virtual reality systems, particularly for monitoring spinal health. In her highly cited 2019 study, van der Veen conducted a pioneering agreement analysis between the consumer-grade Vive VR system and the gold-standard Vicon motion capture system for tracking lumbar postural changes. This work, which has garnered 41 citations, demonstrated that low-cost VR tracking could potentially replace expensive kinematic systems in clinical settings, making motion analysis more accessible for rehabilitation and ergonomic assessments. Her contributions have significant implications for tele-rehabilitation and remote patient monitoring, offering scalable solutions for postural assessment. Van der Veen’s research is widely recognized for its practical impact, enabling clinicians to adopt affordable technologies without compromising data quality. Her ongoing work continues to shape the future of wearable and VR-based biomechanics, empowering both researchers and practitioners to advance patient care through innovative, cost-effective tools.
