Hackers often find uses for pressure sensitive materials, detecting footfalls during walking or keypresses in a synthesizer being two examples. [Marco Reps] decided he’d make a hi-res, body-s… ...

Pressure-sensing chest mat guides users through CPR. Unlike some similar devices, the mat utilizes soft sensors that don't hurt the user's hands. Fraunhofer. View 1 Image 1 / 1.

[imsolidstate] built his own pressure sensitive mat. It utilizes two discs of copper clad board with a piece of foam in between for each of 64 sensors. As the foam gets compressed, the capacitance … ...

Tactonic Technologies is creating pressure-sensing floor mats that measure how users move within the realm of virtual reality to allow for a more natural sense of motion, and possibly even permit ...

Can sensing technology improve and quantify yoga practice? The makers of a prototype device called the SmartMat, a yoga mat with embedded sensor technology, reckon it can. At the time of writing ...

MIT researchers used a uniquely designed plastic yarn to create a knit textile, called 3DKnITS, that they interspersed with pressure sensors. In their experiments, they used this material to ...

There is a need in the HeathCare to look for an innovative approach to monitor patients remotely in a non-intrusive way to prevent certain situations: fall prevention, presence/absence, people ...

The conference and exhibition enabling the commercialisation of disruptive sensor technologies. This event will bring together material suppliers, sensor manufacturers and end users. With a program ...
