VOR Eye Rehab vs NeuroCom: Active Vestibular Platform vs Discontinued Clinical Equipment

NeuroCom's SMART EquiTest was the gold standard for computerized dynamic posturography. But the product line was discontinued in 2021, leaving clinics with aging hardware and no path forward for digital vestibular care.

Why It Matters for Vestibular Patients

NeuroCom's SMART EquiTest was the definitive platform for computerized dynamic posturography (CDP) for over two decades. Its Sensory Organization Test (SOT) became the standard protocol for objective balance assessment, and research institutions worldwide relied on NeuroCom hardware for vestibular research.

In 2021, Natus Medical (NeuroCom's parent company, acquired by Integra LifeSciences) discontinued the product line. Existing installations continue to operate, but there are no software updates, no new features, and limited replacement part availability. Clinics with NeuroCom systems face an aging hardware platform with no path forward.

VOR Eye Rehab represents the next generation of vestibular care — cloud-based, continuously updated, and accessible from any smartphone. While it does not replicate NeuroCom's force plate posturography, it provides the interactive home exercise, AI-driven progression, validated outcomes, and remote monitoring capabilities that the discontinued NeuroCom platform never offered. For clinics transitioning away from legacy hardware, VOR Eye Rehab delivers a modern vestibular rehabilitation workflow.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is NeuroCom still available for vestibular assessment?

NeuroCom's SMART EquiTest product line was discontinued by Natus Medical (now part of Integra LifeSciences) in 2021. Existing installations continue to operate, and used units are available on the secondary market at $50,000-$100,000+, but there is no active development, no software updates, and limited replacement part availability. VOR Eye Rehab is an actively developed vestibular rehabilitation platform with continuous updates, cloud-based infrastructure, and subscription pricing accessible to any practice.

How does VOR Eye Rehab compare to NeuroCom for vestibular care?

NeuroCom and VOR Eye Rehab serve different functions. NeuroCom provided in-clinic computerized dynamic posturography (CDP) using force plates for objective balance assessment. VOR Eye Rehab provides interactive home VOR exercises with gyroscope tracking, AI-driven difficulty progression, validated self-report outcomes (DHI, ABC, VVAS), and remote monitoring. NeuroCom had no home exercise or remote monitoring capability. For clinics transitioning from discontinued NeuroCom hardware, VOR Eye Rehab provides a modern, cloud-based vestibular workflow.

What should clinics do if their NeuroCom system is aging?

Clinics with aging NeuroCom hardware face increasing maintenance costs and no path to software updates. Options include purchasing Bertec Balance Advantage as a modern force plate replacement ($40-80K+) or transitioning to cloud-based platforms like VOR Eye Rehab for vestibular rehabilitation management. Many clinics adopt VOR Eye Rehab to add home exercise capability, remote monitoring, and AI-driven progression — features that NeuroCom never provided — while evaluating whether to reinvest in new in-clinic assessment hardware.
