What is buttonsens?
Using a textile sensor, you can measure force when pushing a button or interfacing a finger with an object.
In ergonomics, manufacturing quality control, and biomechanics, the buttonsens force sensor measures force applied to the finger during actions. The sensor is attached to the finger or thumb and measures the normal force.
The buttonsens utilizes one fully calibrated, capacitive sensor made of textile materials which is connected to the small and lightweight loadpad electronics.
buttonsens key features:
• quickly measure the force with an easy to use sensor • visualize and analyze data in real-time via a mobile app • quantify forces to design best practices and work standards for processes • analyze mechanical properties of button or switches for ergonomic optimization • enable precise workflow standards by creating thresholds and using auditory or visual feedback
Real-time analysis with loadapp
A detailed analysis can be performed on the data collected by the app by storing it on the device as well as transferring it to a computer. The mobile app displays force over time and allows you to set your thresholds for audio or visual feedback.
