Automotive Haptic Actuator and Haptic Actuator System | CK MATERIALS LAB

CK MATERIALS LAB is a top supplier of accurate and realistic tactile input for cars, improving the driving experience. A ground-breaking magneto-rheological elasticity (MRE) haptic system is called BeatTouch™. Their premium MR fluids are made to improve control in a range of settings. This is a proprietary method that uses the magnetic field produced by the induced current to control MRE activity in different structures to provide different tactile sensations. One type of smart material that is regulated by an external magnetic field produced by an induced current is a magneto-rheological elastomer (MRE), which is a mixture of elastic materials like natural or synthetic rubber. When a magnetic field is applied, its structure changes from being soft and pliable to being stiff and becomes noticeably more rigid. The stiffness of a material is determined by the mixture of magnetic particles and elastic elements. BeatTouch™ M for Flexible Wearables: Key Highlights: Ø Flexible ...
