BPMS measures the pressure distribution of a human body on support surfaces such as seats,
mattresses, cushions, and backrests. The system includes hardware, software, and thin-film pressure
sensors (mats). The mats feature spatial resolutions as high as one sensing element/cm2 and
contains as many as 2016 individual sensing elements per sensor.
The mats' thinness enables the
user to confidently incorporate the sensor into the application without altering the characteristics
of the support surface. The combination of these factors enables precise measurement of the location
and magnitude of peak pressures and overall pressure distribution patterns.
BPMS is built on a "modular" sensor construct concept. This means you can acquire a system
in many ways from one sensor up to eight. This allows you to grow your BPMS as your
needs expand, thus protecting your initial investment.
