Our Technology

Smart Materials. Smarter Sensing.

Discover how NanoSen’s polymer nanocomposite (PNC) technology transforms force into data — thin, flexible, and ready for real-world applications.

At NanoSen, we develop next-generation force sensing materials based on polymer nanocomposites (PNC) — a breakthrough combination of flexible polymers and conductive nanoparticles.

This unique structure allows our thin-film materials to precisely detect changes in pressure, compression, and touch.
When paired with our proprietary readout electronics, they form a powerful and adaptable platform for smart sensing solutions .

How it works

Our PNC technology integrates conductive nanoparticles into a soft, stretchable polymer matrix.
This material responds instantly to applied force by changing its electrical resistance — allowing precise force measurement across a wide range.

Unlike traditional sensors, NanoSen’s PNC films are:

  • Ultra-thin — suitable for flexible surfaces and compact systems
  • Highly sensitive — detecting even subtle pressure changes
  • Robust — durable and reliable under mechanical stress

Key Advantages

Flexibility

Ultra-thin and bendable — adapts seamlessly to curved, wearable, or compact designs.

Durability

Resistant to stress and fatigue — built for long-term stability and performance.

Sensitivity

Captures even the smallest changes in pressure or force.

Adaptability

Customizable geometry and easy integration with USB or I²C communication.

Where Our Technology Comes to Life

Our sensing materials open up new possibilities across industries — from robotics and healthcare to industrial testing and research.

Wherever precision and flexibility matter, NanoSen’s PNC technology delivers reliable, real-time force measurement.

It enables:

  • Force & Pressure Distribution
  • Tactile Interaction & Feedback
  • Material Characterization & Load Testing
  • Prototyping & System Integration

Not every innovation fits into a category — that’s why we offer tailored sensing concepts for new use cases. Our team supports customers from idea to prototype with custom sensor design and integration.
