Using our conformable sensors or our specially-designed FingerTPS System, customers around the world are performing demanding touch and body fit assessments. As a result of their novel construction and unmatched sensitivity, these products serve a wide variety of ergonomic applications.


GRASP AND TOUCH ASSESSMENT----with FingerTPS The foundation of human touch lies at our fingertips and hands. At PPS, we know that proper instrumentation of this location is critical. Our solution is our FingerTPS (Tactile Pressure Sensors). FingerTPS features conformable materials pre-shaped and sized to give a perfect fit. Plus, they have a sensitivity to capture the lightest touch. Sensors are available in multiple shapes and sizes to instrument the palm, finger tips, and inner phalanges.

Ultra-Sensitive Dynamic range of 300:1 captures very light touches
Wireless Bluetooth connectivity lets you take it with you


BODY FIT ASSESSMENT For general body fit and orthotics applications, you need a flexible sensor that doesn't interfere with body motion. Our light, conformable sensors can fit almost any area of the body while remaining sensitive for light contact. They can even be made stretchable to support large movements or more complex surfaces.

Ultra-Sensitive Dynamic range of 300:1 captures very light touches
Thin Active area thickness < 0.012 in (0.3 cm)
Conformable Unique construction allows tight, 2-axis bending
Customizable Specify nearly any convex shape for a perfect fit


Each system includes our powerful Chameleon software completes the solution with real-time data acquisition and visualization. Chameleon displays pressure array data in both mesh and grid formats and allows both real-time and recorded viewing. It even includes a webcam that provides video synchronized with any data display. For the ultimate in data interpretation, Chameleon supports data display on 3D meshes matching your actual surface.
