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 … ...

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 ...

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 ...

"The brake pressure sensor assembly may leak brake fluid into the brake pressure switch and cause a short circuit," the memo ...

Novosund has created an ultrasound sensor that allows real-time blood pressure sensing without any cuff hassles. It is ready ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
