Wireless Capability

Tactilus® modular architecture enables users to capture temperature information using the same base electronics. Through the sophisticated application of resistive thermistor technology, the system sets new standards for scientific validity and cost effectiveness.

Tiny sensing cells cover the entire surface of the sensor “skin,” enabling discrete spot temperature analysis at any point within the contact region.

Tactilus® captures data from these sensing points and assimilates it into powerful, user-friendly Windows®-based software, providing colorized temperature maps and detailed statistical reports.
