Founder Story: Yost Labs

Yost Labs in Portsmouth is revolutionizing the motion capture system. Using sensors that attach directly to the body, the software can track movement in open spaces, allowing for realistic animation. Besides the human body, Yost Labs sensors can also be used to measure the movement of robots or navigate drones. With the fastest drone sensors on the market, and the U.S. Navy as one of their biggest clients, the company is continuing to look for ways to bring new applications of the technology to market. Yost Labs received funding from TechGrowth Ohio, a partner of Ohio Third Frontier, and assembles their sensors and parts throughout Ohio.
