Utilizing Force and Pressure Insights to Create Smarter & Safer Consumer Devices

In this webinar, Edward Haidar, a Tekscan Embedded Sensing Division Product Manager and a FlexiForce Product Manager and Applications Engineer, explores how force and pressure insights can be used to create safer and smarter consumer devices. This webinar shines a light on an emerging application that can be used to advance lithium-ion battery designs with the help of force and pressure sensing technologies.

Haidar provides an overview of lithium-ion battery dynamics and the processes that take place inside battery cells when they are charging and discharging. Piezoresistive force and pressure sensing technologies, their properties, and how they are used by R&D engineers as both tools and embedded components.

Through the use of an example case study, this webinar also explores how a new lithium-ion battery assembly can be used to power a consumer electronic device and how the interface pressure insights found by the exemplary engineering team allowed them to embed a new safety feature in the final design.
