XSENSOR (Calgary, Canada) offers two core products in the X3 PRO sensor line, which is designed specifically for high-end applications in the automotive testing industry.

X3 PRO Tire Sensor System produces a high resolution (1.15 mm) pressure image of a tire tread in order to view the contact patch of a tire. This type of imaging allows detailed analysis of traction, cornering, and other considerations.

The X3 PRO Seat Sensor Systems provide pressure images of the automotive seat at a speed of 100,000 sensing cells per second.  Pressure image recordings can be used to validate ingress and egress assumptions, assess occupant comfort, or develop and verify robotic testing protocols.

Beyond these standard products, XSENSOR also offers customizing services to design pressure-imaging solutions to a variety of industrial problems. Contact XSENSOR at xsensor.com for more information.
