Two technology platforms

Both platforms are developed in-house, with manufacturing that does not depend on an external supply chain.

An organic ferroelectric electret converts mechanical vibration into a faint charge, capturing physiological signals as small as a heartbeat or a breath. It resolves micro-vibration at the body surface, costs about one-seventh of comparable products, and is a thin film that conforms to the product’s curvature.

A textile piezoresistive construction that solves the crease-failure problem of film sensors, continuously measuring and mapping surface pressure distribution. The textile substrate survives repeated loading, arrays into a grid that outputs a pressure map, and is made to the application, from a strip to a full bed.
