Solving engineering challenges
Loomia Custom Pressure Sensor for Robotics, AR/VR & Automotive
The Loomia Electronic Layer can be made into a custom pressure sensor or matrix in your desired shape, size, and sensitivity. Utilizing piezoresistive technology, these sensors measure pressure by detecting changes in electrical resistance when a force is applied, typically decreasing resistance with increased force. Ideal for applications ranging from user interfaces to biomedical devices, our customizable and ultra-flexible sensors are perfect for high-motion-area pressure sensing in industries such as Robotics, AR/VR, and Automotive.
Ultra Flexible Components for Robotics, AR/VR, HMI and More
Our custom pressure sensor technology can be used to map surfaces on fingertips, headbands, and robotic end-effectors.
Loomia custom pressure sensors are fully customizable and able to sense from a gentle touch to body weight
Using a combination of masks and layering, we can mask out noisy areas or create more sensitive zones for your component
We work hand-in-hand with your team to customize the sensitivity of custom pressure sensors to meet your specs
Loomia custom pressure sensors are not printed, giving them a different performance profile than many off-the-shelf printed sensors

Frequently asked by our customers
-
The Loomia Custom Pressure Sensor is an ultra-flexible, customizable piezoresistive sensor designed to measure pressure ranging from a gentle touch (0.8N) to body weight. It can be tailored in shape, size, and sensitivity to meet specific application requirements.
-
Loomia works closely with clients in the Loomia Lab to adjust the sensor's sensitivity by utilizing various masks and layering techniques. This approach allows for the creation of more sensitive zones or the masking of noisy areas to meet precise specifications.
-
These sensors are ideal for high-motion-area pressure sensing in fields such as robotics, augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), automotive industries, and more. They can be used to map surfaces on fingertips, headbands, robotic end-effectors, and other interfaces requiring precise pressure measurement.
-
Unlike many off-the-shelf printed sensors, Loomia's custom pressure sensors are not printed. This distinction provides them with a unique performance profile, offering enhanced flexibility and customization options.
-
Custom pressure sensors can terminate in wires, a rigid PCB or a flex PCB.
