Reduce parts and materials.

Remove the need for traditional complex mechatronic switch packs by using the material as the sensor and interaction interface.

Intelligent structural engineering reduces manufacturing complexity and costs by enabling interactions through subsurface layers. TG0 technology transforms ordinary polymers into powerful capacitive & pressure distribution sensors and sensing layers.

Deformation sensing using smart polymers with structural interventions

Complete sensorless sensors integrated within any physical object
How it works
  1. Surface: Over-moulded non-conductive flexible aspect material
  2. Subsurface: Hollowed and overhang structures applied to injection-moulded conductive materials
  3. Power: Simple mechanical electrical connections
  4. Software: Advanced algorithms to detect pressure caused by internal deformation
  5. Data and analytics: Data output of deformation in custom applications
