Body Pressure Mapping Sensor Solutions

Versatile And Adaptable pressure mapping

PPS technology is capable of measuring pressures exerted on the body ranging from 150N to below 1N.

We also routinely develop custom sensors for our customers’ unique needs. From large, flat sensors for mapping pressure on seats and feet to conformable sensors for mapping pressure across complex surfaces like the ear or head, we can create systems tailored to your needs.

From testing the comfort and fit of a product to quantifying the forces exerted during certain tasks, our sensors help improve products and processes every day.

QUANTIFIABLY MAP PRESSURE ANYWHERE ON THE HUMAN BODY

PPS offers an array of pressure sensing solutions designed for measuring pressure nearly anywhere on the body. We have developed advanced pressure mapping solutions for the head, hands, wrist, feet and more.

PPS sensors can be worn or applied to objects with up to two degrees of curvature. Our conformable sensors comfortably follow the contours of the human body, making them highly suitable for wearing, applying to mannequins, or integrating onto items for testing.

Head Pressure Mapping Systems

Head pressure measurement, mapping, and analysis

• A customizable pressure measurement and mapping system for quantifying pressures exerted on the head from wearable head products.

• Quickly and repeatedly assess the ergonomics of products placed on the head. The comfort of headphones, hearing protection, earmuffs, headbands, and more can now be easily quantified.

• Accurately map, measure, and refine head pressures with the TactileHead to deliver a product with maximum comfort.

TactileGlove

An easy-to-use sensor system for quantifying and mapping pressures on the hand and palm

• 65 sensing elements embedded within a wireless glove allows you to reliably and repeatedly measure and map pressure distribution.

• Visualize and quantify human hand interactions and finger movements. Excellent for grip pressure/force assessment.

• Accurately measure both simple and complex hand operations through high-resolution sensor arrays.

• Research human hand interactions or develop more hand ergonomic products through visual feedback of hand interactions.

Finger TPS II

A simple sensor system for measuring and mapping contact pressures on the fingers

• A set of wearable finger sensors that enable you to measure grip, touch, and other hand forces.

• Easy-to-use and captures high quality data in a natural and organic form-factor.

• A more affordable alternative to the TactileGlove.

Wrist Sensor

A wearable sensor for measuring and mapping pressure from watches, wristbands, and more

• Designed to be worn on the wrist to provide accurate capture of pressures exerted on the wrist.

• A thin, fabric-like sensor provides a minimally-invasive method to measure the contact pressure of any device or product worn on the wrist.

• Map and measure the pressures/comfort of watch bands, wristbands, activity trackers, and more.

• Identify areas of high pressures or discomfort, and improve your product in a quantitative, measurable way.

TactileMat

Our largest and most versatile pressure mapping mat

• A rigid and robust pressure sensing pad that is one of the largest, high-resolution pressure mapping sensors on the market.
