The Flexible Proximity, Touch & Force Sensor plyon Flex Slider is a capacitive-resistive touch and force sensor based on a versatile layered architecture. It is a new approach to how physically and functionally unique sensor modules can be designed, produced, and implemented. It offers an incredible range of problem-solving potential in the fields of robotics, body tracking, and direct human-machine interactions.

The wide range of possible shapes and sizes, as well as materials, allow an adaptive and versatile use of the sensor in many fields of application, and the TrueZero feature provides a reliable readout together with unprecedented flexibility. Plyon sensors can be bent around curved surfaces and still be characterized by excellent signal integrity. While the simple electrical interface is ideal for prototypes and integrated systems, the sensor fits to any kind of application which requires a reliable force-to-voltage conversion.
