TactArray - Overview

PPS TactArray systems were developed for measuring the tactile pressure distribution
between objects in direct physical contact.
 
All TactArray systems include one or more sensor arrays, drive electronics, real-time visualization and acquisition software, power supply and cables, and an operator’s manual. With a Windows-based PC, you have everything you need to begin collecting data.

Our patented technology enables a two-dimensional array of pressure sensing elements in a thin,
continuous sheet. Using a simple but powerful capacitive approach, PPS tactile sensors offer
industry-leading sensitivity and repeatability with a wide variety of options for design.

Data from the sensors is conditioned using PPS Interface Electronics and the TactArray software
provides real-time visualization of resulting pressure map and allows for data analysis, capture and extract.
