TRAZER in the Know February 28-March 4, 2022 | | | | | | | |
We have heard your requests and feedback. We are thrilled to announce the launch of our first 2 Upper Extremity activities– REACH and MATH REACH.(Customers, you can find them under Drills or by using the Search function.)
These activities can be performed while standing, by those who are ambulatory, or seated by those confined to a wheelchair or electric scooter. As with all TRAZER activities, the mind and body are challenged simultaneously to enhance the training / rehabilitation process. Measure targets achieved and reaction time for overhead, forward and side L/R targets.
MATH REACH (shown above) has customizable settings that allow you to leave the cues on-screen or to set the prompt disappear time from 1500 MS down to 50 MS to train vision, brain and body simultaneously. Ideal for skilled nursing facilities, for physical therapy for the wheelchair bound, or for the athletic population rehabbing from shoulder surgery. Once again, TRAZER is serving those aged 5 – 105, with all levels of mobility.

Meet Matthew - Matthew is 24 and quickly approaching college graduation. As an ambitious collegiate athlete, Matthew is hoping to be scouted to play in the NFL. He attended the National Scouting Combine where he had the opportunity to put his athletic abilities to the test on TRAZER in front of coaches and scouts. Matthew described his experience as "once in a lifetime" and is thankful for TRAZER's ability to provide real-time data that he could easily share with recruiters. "When I got on TRAZER, my instincts took over as I performed the lateral drill as fast as possible. Not only was I on turf at the field house but setting the TRAZER background to "football field" made it that much more real. I did not know this technology existed before the Combine, and it feels like a once in a lifetime opportunity to have showcased my abilities in a gamified way. TRAZER made agility and speed testing more engaging than simply running on the turf."
We are proud to tell Matthew's story. Without our partners and their belief in TRAZER, we wouldn't have the opportunity to help athletes follow their dreams of going pro.

World-renowned Dr. Kevin Wilk, Sports Physical Therapist, Champion Sports Medicine, uses TRAZER to provide his patients and athletes with a sensory, muscular and cognitive training session. "This exciting device stimulates a sensory-motor response that requires recognition, reaction, response & motor control!", he says.
After performing cognitive motor training and testing on one of his athletes using TRAZER, Kevin reported the following:
"In this video, Austin Wiley, former star of Auburn basketball and now professional basketball player in Europe, is killing this drill which improves coordination, visual awareness, cognitive motor response, and reaction time. TRAZR is an awesome training device, and in this case, integrates the brain and body connection with this movement drill!"
