Stretchable TactArray
The Stretchable TactArray is a flexible pressure sensor pad engineered from a soft and conductive silver-metalized Spandex. The Stretchable TactArray can stretch up to 10% and be folded in multiple directions while still maintaining high data quality. This sensor is approximately 3-7 mm thick and is best suited for dynamic curvature applications such as seats, horseback saddles and other applications where sensor thickness is not an issue.
Key Features
Stretch this sensor up to 10% while maintaining accurate data
Can be used on objects with dynamic, multi-directional curvature (e.g., heads, spheres, computer mouse)
Ideal for applications where the sensor will be flexed or deformed through use, such as seat cushions, mattresses, or clothing
Capture high quality pressure data between pressures of 5 psi to 50 psi and within temperature ranges of –20° to 50°C
Comes standard with Chameleon Visualization Software, and is available in many sizes and configurations
Applications:
Measuring or mapping the pressure profile of deformable objects such as seats or horseback saddles, where structure changes due to the applied load
Measuring pressure of two soft objects pressing against each other, and thus flexing the sensor in between
