Adaptive Tactile Sensing for Next-Generation Smart Prosthetic Devices
Funding Programme: Innowwide Call 4 – Eureka Network and European Union
Project Duration: June 2026 – November 2026
Modern prosthetic devices have achieved remarkable advances in mobility and functionality. However, many users still face a fundamental limitation: the absence of meaningful tactile feedback. Without a sense of touch, everyday activities such as handling delicate objects, controlling grip force, or interacting naturally with the environment can remain challenging.
NanoCure explores how advanced tactile sensing technologies can help bridge this gap. The project investigates the integration of NanoSen’s force sensing technology into future prosthetic systems, enabling the detection of touch, pressure, and physical interaction in real time.
In collaboration with Cure Bionics, NanoSen is evaluating both the technical feasibility and market potential of adaptive tactile sensing solutions for next-generation prosthetic devices. The project combines expertise in flexible sensor technologies with innovative prosthetic system design to identify pathways toward more intuitive and responsive assistive technologies.
Beyond technical validation, NanoCure also serves as an international innovation initiative, strengthening collaboration between European and Tunisian partners while exploring opportunities for technology transfer and future healthcare applications.
By improving sensory perception in prosthetic systems, the project aims to contribute to assistive technologies that enhance user confidence, independence, and overall quality of life.
