  • Display real-time and recorded data as 2-D and 3-D images
  • Display of pressure and force curves over time
  • Export ASCII file capability
  • Display data frame-by-frame, single, and/or multi-frame
  • Isolate and analyze specific regions
  • Display Center of Force and its trajectory
  • View and compare multiple tests simultaneously
  • And much, much, more!

Data Acquisition Electronics and Sensor to PC Interface

Every Tekscan Industrial system, including BPMSTM, uses a specially designed sensor interface electronic called a "handle". The handle connects to the sensor, gathers the data from the sensor, and then processes and sends this data to your computer. The handle connects to the PC via a USB cable. Each interface product embodies sophisticated microprocessor based circuitry to control scanning sequence and frequency, adjust sensitivity, and optimize the performance of our sensors.

Add-On Capabilities

Tekscan systems provide the flexibility of adding on capabilities as your needs evolve to enhance data analysis and interpretation. Please ask us about any of the add-on options to the BPMSTM system listed below:

Wireless Capability - Enables a wireless connection between your sensor/handle and your PC allowing for ultimate flexibility in data acquisition.

Virtual System Architecture™ (VSA) - Larger areas are easily accommodated with our VSA software solution. VSA allows you to view multiple sensors, positioned adjacent to one another, creating a continuous measurement region.

Video Synchronization™- Video sequences can be recorded and synchronized with your pressure data and visualized in Tekscan software, enhancing the utility of collected data.

Equilibration/Calibration Devices - Available in various pressures to normalize sensor output, used for equilibration and calibration.

Vacuum Calibration Devices - For use with 5330 sensor and 5400N sensor. Device applies a uniform pressure to the active area of the sensor to normalize output of each sensing element. The system electronically compensates for variation in individual sensing elements.
