Toys & Games Applications
▲ Mouse equipped with three QTC dome sensors.
Downward force upon the sensor causes resistive change due to compressive pressure. Gives degree of sensitivity in applications for gaming as well in associated gaming input devices (i.e. the more force you apply the faster you punch, run, fire).
Pressure-sensitivity can be advantageous for graphic designers, illustrators when drawing on design applications, e.g. when drawing lines, variable stroke thickness can be registered. Less components to manufacture, import and assemble.
▲ QTC pressure sensitivity control switch in slot car racing hand controller with throttle and brake.
▲ Infant learning cubes.
QTC sensors detect how and where the infant touches cubes and respond accordingly with music and/or speech to create a stimulating interactive play environment.
▲ Washable textile play mat for infants.
QTC sensors detect how and where the infant touches the playmat and respond accordingly with music and/or speech to create a stimulating play environment.
QTC sensor brings the added benefit of occupancy detection. QTC is essentially reversible and could therefore be incorporated into a dual-sided play mat without loss to any functionality.
◄ Flexible portable music keyboard.
QTC allows pressure sensitive key presses.
◄ Portable pressure sensitive QTC drum kit
◄ Toy guitar with QTC pressure sensitive musial note buttons.
◄ QTC sensors embedded in the fabric construction activate sound effects, music and/or lights.
Same sensor could sense multiple gestures and range of pressures, i.e. soft to hard strokes, pats, hugs, pressing.
◄ Interactive light oriented dart board using electroluminescent indicators at edge of QTC sensor.
Can be linked to a score keeper software.
▲ QTC sensor within a dance mat.
The sensor can be integrated within the mat padding. Sensor detects multiple functions and movement gestures. QTC is essentially reversible and could therefore be incorporated into a dual-sided mat without loss to any functionality. Sensor can be folded or bent with the mat when not in use.
▲ Balance board for sports training to improve balance and muscle toning.
An exercise peripheral for home entertainment (link to games consoles, pc) to simulate interactive surfing, snow, skate boarding gaming experience.
