Surface EMG Enters The Ladder
Kinvent Advanced Pack
The sensor added here is the K-Myo, supplied with its accessories. It is a surface electromyograph, and it measures muscle activation. Six sensors below it record how much force was produced and through what range; the K-Myo records which muscle was working while that happened, and when it started. That is a different class of information, and it is the reason this rung exists.
Its buyer is the practitioner or performance team who has run out of answers that a force number alone can give, and who wants activation timing recorded alongside it. This is also the first rung whose RFA listing names the top of the software ladder: a one-year Kinvent Physio subscription on the EXCELLENCE tier. Kinvent hold it back for group testing, the Excellence protocol library, video capture and raw data export.

The four rows only Excellence carries
Kinvent’s tier table has four features that appear on Excellence alone. This listing names Excellence, so these four come with the pack, and each of them changes a real working habit.
?Group testingGroup training runs from Premium, but group testing is listed on Excellence by itself. Squad screening days sit on this row and nowhere else in the table.Excellence only?CSV export of raw dataRaw data leaves the app as CSV on this tier. Anyone running their own statistics, feeding a research dataset or reconciling figures in a spreadsheet needs this row, and only Excellence has it.Raw CSV?Excellence protocolsThe Excellence protocol library sits above the Premium one, and both are included at this tier. Seven sensors give the library enough inputs to be worth having.Full library?Video K-aptureKinvent list Video K-apture on Excellence alone. Video recorded against the trace is what makes an EMG result legible to a colleague who was not in the room.Excellence only
Why Activation Data Matters Here
Force, angle, and now timing
Six sensors answer how much and how far. The K-Myo answers which muscle and when, and the app holds all three kinds of answer under one profile.

Sensor Detail
The K-Myo, and what it joins
Surface EMG
K-Myo
Kinvent’s neuromuscular sensor, sitting on the skin over the muscle and reading its activation. Where every other sensor in this pack quantifies an external force or an angle, this one reads the signal that produced it.
- Measures muscle activation by surface EMG
- Applied to the skin over the target muscle
- Supplied with accessories in this pack

Reading the trace in the room
The activation trace appears in the app while the effort is happening, and with the Excellence tier included, video can be captured against it. Two people looking at the same screen see the same signal at the same moment.
- Trace shown live in the K-Force app
- Video K-apture available on the included tier
- Session saved under the profile you have open

K-Force Plates in a seven-sensor kit
The plates arrive from the rung below and read balance, posture and force distribution. Run them in the same session as the K-Myo and a standing task produces both a distribution figure and an activation trace, held together on one profile.
- K-Force Plates for balance and distribution
- K-Push, K-Pull, K-Grip, K-Bubble for force and pressure
- K-Move for joint range of motion

How Advanced compares
Each pack pairs a sensor set with a twelve-month Kinvent Physio subscription. Advanced is the point where surface EMG and the top licence tier both appear.

One sensor and its accessories: the K-Myo, a surface electromyograph. The other six are K-Push, K-Pull, K-Move, K-Grip with accessory, K-Bubble and the K-Force Plates.A one-year Kinvent Physio subscription on the EXCELLENCE tier, named in RFA’s own listing. It is the highest of the three tiers Kinvent publish.Four published rows: group testing, CSV export of raw data, the Excellence protocol library and Video K-apture. Terminals and profiles also rise from six to twenty.Twenty of each. Kinvent’s table lists twenty terminals and twenty patient profiles on Excellence, against six on Premium and three on Starter.Yes, on this tier. CSV export of raw data is an Excellence row, which is what makes this pack workable for a research protocol or any analysis done outside the app.A feature Kinvent list on the Excellence tier only, capturing video alongside the recorded session. It is the row that makes a trace readable later by someone who was not present.Muscle activation. Kinvent place the K-Myo in their neuromuscular category, separate from the dynamometers and the force plates, because it reads the electrical signal at the skin.RFA’s contents state one surface electromyograph plus accessories. Kinvent do not itemise that group further in this listing, so we publish it as written and leave that parts list to the manufacturer.The count differs. RFA itemise one unit with accessories here. At the top of the ladder, the Ultimate Solution Pack itemises two of them as a duo pack.It sits a little above them. Priced one at a time on RFA, the seven sensors total a little below the pack figure, and what fills that gap is the twelve-month Excellence subscription.RFA’s contents for this pack itemise seven sensors and the subscription, without a bag. The Evolution Pack below and the Ultimate Solution Pack above both list one.Expert itemises the K-Deltas, the large-surface plates Kinvent categorise for jump and symmetry work. Read its contents closely, because the K-Force Plates that this pack carries are not itemised in the Expert list.
