About Tacterion

Tacterion develops plyon tactile-sensing technology for smart surfaces, grippers and human-machine interfaces. The plyon flex platform combines resistive and capacitive sensing to measure proximity, touch and force in one flexible layer that can conform to curved or moving surfaces.

Tacterion supplies an end-to-end stack including readout electronics, firmware, product hardware integration and the Tactile Brain software layer. Applications include robotic end effectors, automotive interiors, power tools, consumer products and digitised manual assembly, where contact data can guide adaptive interaction.
