Pressure offloading is essential in footwear, seating, and bedding to prevent pressure ulcers from forming. When skin or body tissue is subjected to sustained body pressure that is too high, it can cause localized ischemia—reduced blood flow to tissues. For people who sit or lie down for long...

Thanks to Wasil Usmani for this writeup and his fascinating research! Contact him on LinkedIn for more details. Can your feet reveal the secret to safer, stronger fast bowling? As part of my biomechanics research into fast bowling, I used the Tekscan dynamic foot pressure system, i.e, Tekscan F-Scan...

Pressure Mapping in Sports Footwear Reseach One research study in progress at a prominent university sports medicine lab is using the F-Scan GO in-shoe gait analysis system to measure gait pressure to study new high performance shoe designs. Specifically, the researchers are testing new cleat...

Therapeutic Force-Feedback Device Design One company was developing a small force-sensitive physical therapy device aimed at tracking a patient's recovery progress after a specific medical event. Their mission was to empower patients on their journey to recovery by providing an innovative, user...

Foot pressure distribution and timing information provide valuable insight on a variety of biomechanical and neurological disorders, as well as aiding in treatment and prevention of wounds caused by high foot pressure. Our systems give you foot pressure insights however you need to collect them -...

Robotic Force Sensors Force sensors enhance the design of robotic applications by enabling advanced control technology. Force sensors provide a robot with haptic feedback, which allows for better overall performance. This performance includes verifying grip forces, ensuring proper balance, and...

Force Sensors for Medical Devices The thin, lightweight design of the FlexiForce™ sensor makes it the ideal force measurement solution for medical devices. The sensor provides quantitative data that enhances the tool's capabilities. This data allows surgeons and doctors to eliminate guesswork...

Force Sensors for Sports / Fitness Sports and fitness devices designed with force sensors result in real-time, accurate monitoring devices that can measure both force feedback and pressure distribution.
