The Ultimate Closing Energy Gauge
Designed for teams that demand accurate, repeatable, operator-independent data, the EnergyPod transforms door measurement into a fast, intuitive process.
EnergyPod is the next generation of door energy analysis smaller, lighter, smarter, and capable of measuring far more than closing energy alone. Designed for engineering teams who demand accuracy, repeatability, and speed, the EnergyPod brings lab-grade precision to real-world testing environments.
Compatible with the MyPod software and equipped with a 3-axis force measurement system, gyroscopes, accelerometers, and intelligent feedback LEDs, the EnergyPod sets a new standard for door system validation in automotive engineering and beyond.
EnergyPod doesn’t just capture data; it reveals the entire story behind how a door moves. From door angle and closing speed, friction or latch behavior, each measurement uncovers a different layer of door dynamics. Together, they give engineers a complete, high-resolution picture of performance, feel, and consistency.
Reveal exactly where your door loses momentum. The EnergyPod measures speed drop over the final degrees of travel, exposing hidden resistance in seals, checks, and hinges. It turns “why does it feel heavy?” Will customers like it? into precise, actionable data.
Track the entire motion arc with engineering precision. From full-open angle to detents and micro-positions, the EnergyPod maps door geometry in real time so you can validate design intent, detect variations, and fine-tune user experience.
Measure the true work required to close any door. With a 3D force sensor and inertial measurement fusion, the EnergyPod captures energy as force × distance, independent of operator technique. Pure physics perfectly measured.
Analyze the dynamics of the closing motion with high-resolution inertial data. The EnergyPod measures angular speed at any mounting position, revealing exactly how fast a door needs or shouldn’t need to be pushed to achieve a clean, confident latch.
Its auto-latch intelligence, universal compatibility, and rugged design make it the most advanced portable closing-energy tool available today delivering the clarity and confidence your development process deserves.
Up, down, out, or sideways…however your door opens, EnergyPod keeps up. From vertically hinged doors to tailgates, liftgates, and frunks, it handles every hinge style with ease. Industrial-grade inertial sensors and a clever 3D force sensor turn all those movements into clean, reliable data.

EnergyPod comes with everything you need: a push ring, charging station, AC adapter, and USB-C cable. It mounts in seconds thanks to its quick-grip suction cup and actuator lever, stays protected with a soft silicone cover, and shows your results on a clean, easy-to-read e-ink screen.
And when your device has seen thousands of doors, the optional replacement kit lets you swap out high-wear parts like the suction cup or handles in just a few minutes. Fresh parts, fresh performance, no fuss.
EnergyPod adapts to your workflow with three operational modes each designed for a different testing environment, from quick daily checks to high-precision laboratory analysis.
Choose the mode that matches your needs: simple numeric results, pass/fail verification with latch confirmation, or full-resolution engineering data for development and correlation work.
- Easy Mode – Simple, continuous measurements with direct numeric results ideal for setup, training, and quick comparisons.
- Go/No-Go Mode – Adds tolerances and latch detection to deliver precise clear pass/fail feedback, making it the preferred mode for production lines and end-of-line checks.
- Go/No-Go Mode – Delivers the most detailed, engineering-grade results with full numeric output perfect for development, benchmarking, and correlation work.
Different teams have different needs. Some prefer quick local storage, others want live engineering analysis, and some rely on plant-level databases. EnergyPod supports multiple data-logging paths so you can choose exactly how and where your measurement results are saved, viewed, and analyzed. Whether you need simple CSV files, high-rate sensor streaming, or direct production-line integration, there’s a data-logging solution that matches your process
On-Device Logging Simple, Portable, Always Ready
Store thousands of measurements directly on the EnergyPod. Ideal for fast testing, field work, and users who want quick results without connecting to a computer.
PC Logging Full Graphs & Engineering Analysis
Stream measurements live on MyPod for real-time visualization, graphing, and deeper diagnostic analysis. Perfect for engineering teams studying speed, angle, or force behavior in detail.
PLS Integration Automated, Traceable, Inspection-Ready
Connect EnergyPod to PLS for automated data capture, VIN-based traceability, and Go/No-Go decisions on the production line. The ideal choice for high-volume inspection routines.
