A new fabric-based touch sensor used machine learning to control mobile apps, video games and other devices while integrated into clothing.

The fingertips are covered in touch sensors, each intended to be tapped by the thumbtip of the same hand. Touch-typing with thumbs on a mobile phone keyboard is a pretty familiar way to input text ...

Capacitive Touch Sensors The Capacitive Touch Sensor (CTS) is a gesture sensitive functional textile touch-pad interface for physical devices. The CTS is produced as a single piece of fabric requiring ...

Tokyo, Japan – Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have developed a new calibration algorithm for technology that turns common materials into touch sensors. HumTouch detects the ...

The project’s page goes into a great amount of detail on how capacitive touch sensors like these work in general, and describes the operation of this specific code as well.

CIT and UniPixel worked together in 1996 as part of a common project of a third party developer and CIT believes that UniPixel has used CIT's know how to develop the UniBoss touch sensor.

Flexible sensors turn skin into a touch-sensitive interaction space for mobile devices Date: March 4, 2015 Source: University Saarland Summary: If a mobile phone rings during a meeting, its owner ...

A patent application filed by Apple imagines putting a fingerprint sensor inside a smartwatch's power button, behind the digital crown, or beneath the screen.

The sensor acts as a variable electrical capacitor. When the sensor is pressed down, the sensing droplet is squeezed over conductive electrodes, increasing its capacitance. “There’s a huge need for ...

But today, scientists report the invention of a tiny sensor that detects lithium levels from sweat on the surface of a fingertip in as little as 30 seconds, without a trip to the clinic.

Apple is examining a shift from a force sensor in AirPods to a capacitive touch system to make a set easier to control, and provide new options.

The folks at iFixit opened up a new iPhone 6s to find out how Apple implemented the 3D Touch technology.
