Sensors & Printed Electronics
CSI Keyboards has been designing and manufacturing printed electronics for over 40 years. Some of our printed electronics include biometric sensors, electrode sensors, force sensors and liquid sensors.
Electrode and biosensors, when applied to the skin, can track biometric data transmitted by the body by sending or receiving electrical signals.
Force sensing resistors measure the force applied to a specific area and then communicate that information directly to the electronic aspect of the device. When pressure is applied to these types of sensors, the resistance lowers. When the pressure is removed, the resistance returns to it’s original state or value.
Liquid sensors have the ability to detect the level of most fluids when immersed based on the capacitive value of the liquid itself.
Electrode & Biometric Sensors
Screen printed electrode and biometric sensors are thin and flexible eliminating the need for wires. The sensors can send and receive electrical signals when they come in contact with the skin.
Force & Pressure Sensors
Force sensors use high resistance carbon based inks. They can detect how quickly and how much applied force changes. They are also useful in detecting whether something has been touched.
Liquid & Fluid Level Sensors
Liquid sensors have the ability to detect the level of most fluids when immersed in some form of a liquid holding object such as a tube. The sensor is compressed by the pressure of the liquid in which it’s immersed resulting in a change in resistance.
Capacitive Sensors
Capacitive sensors use the capacitance of the human body for detection. They can be activated by contact or distance.
