Haptic Touchpad with Capacitive Grid

Sensel’s Haptic Touchpad with Capacitive Touch combines a capacitive touch sensor, a force field sensor, and haptics to serve as a versatile replacement for a mechanical touchpad. It functions beautifully under a glass covertop, making it a perfect fit for high-end devices.

PRODUCT FEATURES
Best-in-Class Haptics
Our haptics open a new world of dynamic feedback, providing powerful kicks in one moment and crisp clicks in the next based on the amount of force applied. Low latency, minimal power usage and long-term reliability make Sensel’s haptics the best actuators on the market today.
Configurable
Haptic feedback levels can be customized based on your personal preferences or application target. Enjoy a light click? Or more robust feedback? The controls are literally at your fingertips, and easily set up by your end users.
Ultra-Thin
At a scant z-height of 3mm, our module allows for a dramatic reduction in device thickness and the option to fit a larger battery for longer life.
Scales to Any Size
Design products your customers crave. Sizes start from a standard touchpad to the entire width of the palm rest and can even scale to the entire surface of the notebook.
Feels Incredible
Sensel technology detects force uniformly across the entire touchpad. With no dead areas, you get a consistent haptic response no matter where you click on the pad.
Durability
No mechanical hinges or buttons means no moving parts. Sensel trackpads are designed for long-term reliability and millions of clicks.
Haptic Touchpad with Capacitive Grid
Sensel’s Haptic Touchpad with Capacitive Touch combines a capacitive touch sensor, a force field sensor, and haptics to serve as a versatile replacement for a mechanical touchpad. It functions beautifully under a  glass covertop, making it a perfect fit for high-end devices

PRODUCT FEATURES
Best-in-Class Haptics
Consistent crisp click performance over the entire surface and at the same time  open up a  new dynamic world of feedback, providing powerful kicks in one moment and crisp clicks in real-time. 
Thin with Great Performance and Scalability
The ultra-thin, 3mm module allows for a dramatic reduction in device thickness with the ability to scale to the palmrest even the entire top of the device.
New User Experiences
Because of its high-level of precision, it even works with passive conductive stylus or paint brush.
Incredible Linearity
A combination of a high-resolution touch grid and Sensel hardware compression provides a best in class linearity of <0.3mm across the entire sensor.
Less False Touch Failures
With electrodes that are spaced closer together, the solution is less susceptible to false touch failures even with smaller finger sizes.
Haptic Touchpad with Pressure Grid
Many are familiar with the basics of touchpads through notebooks. By adding Pressure Grid and haptics with the ability to support gloves and water, you can expand to new markets such as automotive, industrial and medical with little or no learning curve.

PRODUCT FEATURES
Best-in-Class Haptics
Consistent crisp click performance over the entire surface and at the same time open up a new dynamic world of feedback, providing powerful kicks in one moment and crisp clicks in real-time.
Works with Gloves
It recognizes virtually any object, not just your fingers, including a gloved hand, passive stylus, or the individual bristles of a paintbrush.
Works under Water
Pressure Grid enables unconstrained interaction in virtually any environment, including underwater.
Flexible form factors
Our Pressure Grid sensors can be integrated behind flat or curved surfaces. Top surface material can be plastic, leather or even wood.
New force Gestures
Enable additional modalities of user control for a wide range of creativity and productivity software.

Haptic Touchpad with Pressure Grid

Our Pressure Grid with haptics lets your designs reach new markets in automotive, industrial, and medical. Relying on pressure instead of conduction, these trackpad modules provide familiar interaction, but can be used when wet and with gloves or coverings of any material.

PRODUCT FEATURES
Best-in-Class Haptics
Consistent click performance over the entire surface and superior driver integration opens up a new dynamic world of feedback. Variable haptic response provides powerful kicks or crisp clicks in real-time.
Works with Gloves
Our Pressure Grid recognizes virtually any object, not just your fingers, including a gloved hand, passive stylus, or the individual bristles of a paintbrush.
Works under Water
Since it doesn’t rely on conductivity, unconstrained interaction is now possible in virtually any environment, including underwater.
Flexible Form Factors
Our Pressure Grid sensors can be integrated behind flat or curved surfaces. The top surface material can be plastic, leather or even wood.
New Force Gestures
Enable additional modalities of user control for a wide range of creativity and productivity.

Displays with Pressure Grid

Adding our Pressure Grid and haptics to a display creates a blank canvas of unique capabilities that can be constantly changed and updated depending on the requirements. These products offer similar performance to the touch on your smartphone, but with the benefit of full functionality with gloves or even fully submerged in water.
PRODUCT FEATURES
Minimal Height, Maximum Performance
Ultra thin sensor with no sacrifice in multi-touch performance with low latency and excellent linearity.
Works with Gloves or Water
Force sensing touch that works well with fingers and gloves. Works in any environment, from sprinkling rain, to heavy downpours, and even under water.
Works with a Paint Brush
Sensitive enough to detect the small pressure differences in strokes of a regular paintbrush, robust enough to use with any passive stylus for a natural drawing experience at lower cost.
Combine it with Haptics
Haptic feedback expands to new layers with Pressure Grid force thresholds.
Curved Applications
The sensor is so thin that it can follow the curve of any flexible display. Contour to curved surfaces and provide a solution that fits your design.

Custom Sensor

If you need to add a combination of touch, force and haptics that is designed specifically for your requirements, then reach out to Sensel.
PRODUCT FEATURES
Flat or Curved
Our sensors can be designed to fit a wide variety of shapes, sizes and form factors.
Real-time Haptics
Our haptics can dynamically change a range of parameters like frequency, aptitude and the force at which the event happens.
Sensel API
Allows you to capture either contact data or raw force images so you can develop your own gesture identification for your own applications.
In-field Firmware Updates
Easily update devices with new features or resolve any issues without requiring products to be sent back to the factory for new revisions of firmware.
Production Testing Tools
Sensel develops factory tools to calibrate position and force for any production environment.
Displays with Pressure Grid
Displays, force sensing and haptics provide a blank canvas of capabilities that can be constantly changed and updated depending on the requirements. These products offer similar performance to the touch on your smartphone with the ability to work any object like gloves or any environment such as water even fully submerged.
PRODUCT FEATURES
Thin and Great Performance
Ultra thin sensor with no sacrifice in multi-touch performance with low latency and excellent linearity.
Works with Gloves or Water
Force sensing touch that works well with fingers and gloves. It’s not afraid of the environment and can be used with rain from sprinkling to heavy downpours and even under water.
Works with a Paint Brush
