NanoSen at OTWorld 2026
Force sensing is becoming increasingly important in prosthetics and rehabilitation systems. From pressure distribution to adaptive interaction, sensor technology plays a key role in enabling more responsive assistive devices.
At OTWorld 2026 in Leipzig, NanoSen presents its approach to flexible force sensing based on Force Sensing Impedance (FSI) technology.
Why Force Sensing Matters Here
In assistive systems, sensing is not just about measurement.
It is about feedback, control, and interaction.
Understanding pressure distribution, detecting subtle changes in force, or enabling adaptive responses – these are key challenges across prosthetics and rehabilitation technologies. This is where new material-based sensing approaches open up different possibilities.
We will showcase our Force Sensing Impedance (FSI) technology and how it can be integrated into flexible, application-near systems. One of the demonstrators we bring is a sensor-integrated insole. Visitors can step onto it and see real-time force distribution directly visualized.
It is a simple setup, but it points to a larger idea:
bringing sensing directly into surfaces that interact with the human body.
From Demonstrator to Application
The insole is not a finished product. It is a starting point. We are exploring how technologies like this could evolve into real-world applications – from rehabilitation monitoring to adaptive assistive systems. What is missing today are not only technical solutions, but the right collaborations to take these concepts further.
What We Are Looking For
OTWorld is an opportunity for us to enter the MedTech space more deeply.
We are looking to connect with:
- companies developing prosthetics and orthotic systems
- partners interested in integrating flexible sensing into their products
- researchers exploring new approaches to human-machine interaction
Let’s Talk
If you are working on systems where force, pressure, or interaction matter, we would be interested to exchange ideas. Visit us at Hall 1, Booth D21.
