I-Scan™ is a powerful tool that accurately measures and analyzes interface pressure between two surfaces, utilizing a thin and flexible sensor. Measuring both force and pressure, this exceptionally thin tactile sensor provides minimal interference between the objects being measured, allowing the true interface pressure data to be obtained. This data offers vital information and insight to enhance product design, manufacturing, quality, and research.
