Tactile Force Sensors: Thin & Flexible FlexiForce® Sensors Improve System Effectiveness

Posted in Webinars, Tech Talks, MDB on Friday, May 11 2012

This session will explore the theory behind resistive tactile force sensor technology, and will share case studies illustrating the significance of flexible sensor technology in ensuring system effectiveness in the medical device industry. Technical topics addressed will include the unique advantages of thin and flexible force sensor technology over traditional load cell technology. Such advantages include:

  • simpler electronics
  • wider dynamic range
  • ease of integration
  • flexibility
  • lower cost

Case studies will highlight how thin and flexible sensors have improved training systems for clinicians and how the ensure accurate functioning of drug delivery systems.
