Researchers have developed the world’s first non-electric soft touchpad that senses force, area, and contact location without electricity.
The device uses pneumatic channels, which enable its use in environments such as MRI machines and other conditions unsuitable for electronic devices.Researchers at Tampere University have developed the world’s first soft touchpad that can sense the force, area, and location of contact without electricity.
In addition to detecting the touch’s force, area, and location, the device is precise enough to recognize handwritten letters on its surface, and it can even distinguish multiple simultaneous touches.“Electronic sensors may stop functioning in extreme conditions, such as in a strong magnetic field. Since the touchpad is not electric, a strong magnetic field does not affect it, which makes it ideal for use in devices such as MRI machines,” says Doctoral Researcher Vilma Lampinen.
By adding data collected by sensors to such soft, non-electric devices, it will be possible to map the location, force, and area of touch across the entire surface of the device in the future. current
