Touch Sensor Simulation

Touch sensors are ubiquitous in modern technology, from screens in our phones, kitchen appliances, to vehicles; almost everything we interact with recognizes our touch.

Understanding the mutual capacitance of your screen with an outside dielectric is crucial in determining when a “touch” is recorded.

The subtle changes in mutual capacitance determine the sensitivity of your screen to an outside touch and determines the difference between an accurate touchscreen and a poor one. Q3D enables our engineers to study the efficacy of touch sensors in multiple geometric configurations by analyzing mutual capacitance matrices. Rapidly switching geometry prototypes speeds up prototyping to get you the answers you need quickly.
