In ergonomic engineering and human-device interaction, pressure measurement is essential yet often overlooked.

Tactilus® A Series sensors detect pressure across multiple areas of the body or surface simultaneously, providing a scientific, reliable, and user-friendly tool.

Designed to support engineers, researchers, and technicians, these sensors deliver an optimal balance of sensitivity and versatility, supporting innovation across diverse sectors— medical, industrial, automotive, ergonomic and beyond.

With an activation force as low as 0.1 PSI (0.07 kg/cm²), these sensors are among the most sensitive currently available on the market.

Their versatility is further enhanced by integration with miniature Bluetooth wireless transmitters, making the system ideal for applications spanning large surfaces (e.g., 1 m × 5 m) as well as highly localized areas (e.g., 0.3 cm × 0.3 cm).

Each sensor in the Tactilus® A Series consists of a crisscross network of lines that form unique, high-intensity sensing arrays, ensuring precise and detailed pressure distribution measurement. Depending on the application requirements, sensors can be connected to various hubs, providing maximum operational flexibility.

For users wishing to integrate the system into their own software environment, comprehensive documentation for direct control is available.
