The following is an excerpt from the article, “In
a search for innovative new products, I discovered the Bend Sensor from
Flexpoint Sensor Systems. This product measures mechanical movement, air
flow, water flow, and vibration. It is mounted on a flexible substrate
such as plastic, and it changes in electrical conductivity as it is bent.”
“For protection in harsh environments, such
as automotive or aerospace applications, over-molded laminates seal out
dirt, liquids, heat, and pressure to extend durability.”
Flexpoint has been working with numerous manufacturers and suppliers and
has recently announced agreements with Faurecia, Europe’s
second largest automotive supplier. Faurecia is co-developing automotive
applications, while Precision Pumping is working to adapt the technology
to flow meters. In addition the company has numerous applications in
various stages of development including uses in medical, industrial, and
toy industries.
Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc.
