ANISOTROPIC NOT
piezoelectric
-

Our resistive pressure sensors are formed from multi-layered prints which makes the product less prone to false positives.

WIRE-FREE TEXTILE
SENSORS
-

Our fabric is based on proprietary conductive ink and readings from the textile are transmitted wire-free via Bluetooth or any other connection.

SUSTAINABLE
-

Our low power and low-cost environmentally-friendly printable switches and sensors can play a significant role in solving global challenges including reducing the environmental impact of sensors and electronics.

Our
technology


We create our soft circuits by printing our patented conductive ink onto fabric, so the resulting circuits are wire-free.


Our products have been listed by the UK’s Department for International Trade as 1 of 30 of the brightest tech innovations from the UK alongside Carbon Fiber and Graphene.


Our smart textile sensors provides a three dimensional X, Y and Z signal when pressure is applied to its surface. This signal measures change of pressure.


Talk to us about how you can use this technology to measure data, collect information or control systems in your industry.

How we work

We can start from our Development Kits or customise an existing design. Our technical toolkit and extensive industry experience allows us to support you through the prototyping process.


You provide the problem. We provide our prototyping solution. We offer a technical toolkit of data producing sensors combined with industry expertise to support you.


We are committed to guide you to get a successful solution for your application. So our Prototype Development team can become yours in case you need it. Infi-Tex service concept includes different tasks, from designing of the circuitry solution to printing the sensors. In case you need assistance with data management our partners will provide the necessary resources.

Evaluate

Test a Developer Kit and develop customer
requirements and specifications.

Prototype

Create a bespoke prototype to assess
customer requirements and design options.

Iterate

Use ustomer feedback to fine tune
and improve prototype.

Manufacture

Initial production and manufacturing proccesses,
locations, feasibility and market.

For further information on our developer kits go to Infisoles, Multi-touch mat or Smart Button.

Frequently Asked Questions

What base materials can be used?

Infi-Tex can produce prints for virtually any fabric; elastic, non-elastic, waterproof, knitted, woven, non-woven, synthetic, natural, felt etc. However, films, rubbers and other sheet materials are not possible to use.

Are the sensors affected by moisture?

The sensors can be washed. However, we have no test data from use in wet environments and therefore cannot guarantee performance if the sensor has not fully dried. Waterproof fabrics can be used in wet environments if the edges are sealed.

Is the sensor robust?

All our sensors have a smooth, hard wearing finish, however there is no lifetime wear test data.

Are the sensors affected by temperature?

The sensor is designed for use between 0C and 40C. It cannot be exposed to >80C or <-10C. It cannot be ironed.

Can the two fabric layers of the sensor be glued/heat pressed together?

All sensors rely on a tiny airgap between two coated fabric layers. If they are glued, the sensor will no longer function. However, it is fine to bond the area around the sensor, forming a 'blister' over the sensor.

Can you make Multi-touch, button strips or insoles sensors in custom shapes?

We can make sensors in custom shapes. However our standard Multi-touch developer kit features a rectangular mat, our button strip developer kit has 4 buttons and out insoles developer kit are size **number**. We use a combination of standard and custom produced fabrics so we can meet any size or pitch requirements you have. If required, we have a variety of pressure sensitive materials to meet the force range of your application.
For specific questions on our developer kits go to infisoles, multi-touch mat or button strip.
