Tekscan Grip System 

Grip measures interface pressure for human hand and finger gripping applications to assess comfort, design, and ergonomics. The system is used to improve design for a more ergonomically sound product, study carpal tunnel and repetitive motion syndrome, or analyze the human hold on various tools and sports equipment. It is an ideal tool for collecting vital information and insight to enhance product design, manufacturing, quality, and research. 

•   Simultaneous measurement of left and right hands
•   Numerous independent sensing elements for localized detection of pressure points
•   One subject can grip several objects, in many ways once the hand is instrumented
•   High scanning rates of up to 750Hz (tethered version)
•   Sensor form factor allows for full range of hand motion
•   Paper-thin sensor does not affect the grip “feel”
•   One size fits all
•   Durable and reusable
•   Access real time or recorded data in 2D & 3D
•   Key metrics; total force, peak pressures, and center of force
•   Multiple graph options to plot data
•   View and compare multiple test results simultaneously
•   Ability to attach a digital image to each frame of a Tekscan movie
•   Export data to ASCII or AVI files
