This parameter defines the physical size of each sensing element within our sensors.

- Our sensors are comprised of arrays of individual “sensing elements” whose dimensions are defined by the area of coverage between the driving and sensing electrodes.

- This area of coverage is typically square so the resolution is the dimension of the coverage area between the two electrodes.

- We design sensors with a range of resolutions from 1 mm up to 25 mm.

This parameter defines the width of the active sensing area of the sensor.

- The active sensing area is the region of the sensor covered by the array of sensing elements.

- Not all of our sensors are rectangular arrays. We regularly make sensors of obscure shapes with irregular array dimensions.

This parameter defines the height of the active sensing area of the sensor.

- The active sensing area is the region of the sensor covered by the array of sensing elements.

- Not all of our sensors are rectangular arrays. We regularly make sensors of obscure shapes with irregular array dimensions.

This parameter defines the thickness of the sensor.

- We use different substrates of varying thickness as the dielectric between the electrodes of our sensors.

- The substrate material and thickness in a sensor is dependent on the sensor type and the pressure range the sensor is designed to operate under.

This parameter defines the base sensor style and the applications it is most suitable for.

- PPS produces a number of different sensor design styles which are either rigid, flexible, conformable or stretchable.

- Rigid sensors are flat and aren't able to be bent or wrapped around objects.

- Flexible sensors are systems that can be bent in one direction to fit to objects.

- Conformable sensors are similar to our flexible sensors but they can bend in multiple directions to fit on objects with compound curved surfaces.

- Stretchable sensors are our only sensors that are capable of being stretched without a detrimental effect on output data quality.
