Melbourne, Australia – 28 November 2016: dorsaVi Ltd (ASX: DVL) today announces that leading sports shoe manufacturer Mizuno has used the dorsaVi ViMove Run solution in a pilot program in retail stores in the UK to better understand and inform shoe selection.

The Mizuno Running Solution used the dorsaVi ViMove sensors to wirelessly measure and record movement and the impact of up to nine variables while the customer ran on a treadmill. The assessment was conducted in a matter of minutes providing the retail assistant with analysed results which they could explain to the customer and use to match them with the most appropriate running shoe.

“We felt strongly that there was a natural fit between the rich movement data ViMove delivers and the personalised fit Mizuno are trying to deliver for their running customers”, said Andy Curtis, Co-Founder, YourPhysioPlan.

“The initial results of the pilot are very encouraging – not only is the running assessment with ViMove Run impacting positively on sales in these stores, but also in engaging customers with personalised information which they value. I expect this to further drive brand loyalty,” said Rob Henderson, UK Marketing Manager, Mizuno Corporation UK.

“This is the first retail implementation of our technology and it’s great to see the applicability of the detailed movement analysis data we can provide being used in a completely new way. I expect to see us playing a growing role in the retail sector,” concluded Dr Andrew Ronchi, Chief Executive Officer, dorsaVi.
