About
About tacterion
tacterion develops flexible tactile sensor skins and electronics that combine proximity, touch and force measurement. plyon flex combines resistive and capacitive sensing in a thin, conformable layer that can follow curved or moving surfaces. Tacterion delivers the sensor, readout electronics, edge firmware and processing software as an integrated system for smart products, robot grippers, tools and automotive interiors.
Its current documentation covers product selection, system integration and support for product engineers, with applications and configuration limits tied to the relevant hardware or software family.
