For connecting the readout electronics to a PC for power and serial data transmission.

*Optional upgrade: The readout electronics can be upgraded to 100 sensor channels under request

Large Measurement Coverage

The configurable matrix design captures detailed force distribution patterns across multiple points simultaneously — ideal for surface contact analysis or tactile mapping.

Accurate and Robust Sensor Design

PNC films combine flexibility with durability, maintaining reliable operation under mechanical stress and repeated load cycles.

Scalable Architecture

The modular matrix interface allows custom configurations up to 10×10 points — easily expandable for system-level integration.

Smart Initialization Feedback

Integrated buzzer and automatic matrix recognition simplify startup and calibration, enabling consistent measurement conditions.

Seamless System Integration

Compact readout electronics and standard I2C/UART interfaces ensure compatibility with common research and automation platforms.

Compact Form Factor

At only 5 cm × 5 cm, the electronics module can be embedded directly into prototypes or test rigs with minimal footprint.

Frequently asked Questions


What is the NanoSen Force Matrix Kit used for?

The kit enables simultaneous measurement of distributed forces across multiple points. It is ideal for applications in tactile sensing, pressure mapping, robotics, and experimental material testing.

How many force points can be measured at once?

The system supports up to 100 sensor points in a 10 × 10 matrix configuration, with automatic matrix size detection.

How fast can the matrix acquire data?

The readout electronics support 2 samples per second (sps) for 100 points and 5 sps for smaller matrices (e.g., 6 × 6). This ensures stable operation even at high channel counts.

Can I expand the matrix beyond 10 × 10?

The standard firmware supports up to 10 × 10 nodes. Larger configurations can be achieved by synchronizing multiple readout modules — NanoSen offers development support for such setups.
