Smartring with Piezo haptic
Smart rings represent the next frontier in wearable technology, offering discreet and convenient access to digital functionalities. By incorporating a Boréas piezo driver and a piezo actuator, these compact devices can now feature sophisticated haptic feedback, significantly enhancing user interaction. This innovative integration enables smart rings to deliver nuanced tactile sensations, providing users with intuitive notifications and confirmations. The precise control offered by piezo technology allows for a wide range of haptic effects, from gentle vibrations to more distinct pulses, all within the confined space of a ring.
Smart rings represent a significant challenge in wearable technology design due to their extremely limited space. As these devices shrink to fit comfortably on a finger, incorporating new features becomes increasingly difficult. Traditional haptic technologies, which are crucial for user interaction and notification, often require more space than is available in these compact wearables. This size constraint has historically limited the functionality of smart rings, potentially hampering their adoption and usefulness in daily life.
Piezo actuators offer a groundbreaking solution to this challenge. Their remarkably small size, combined with the minimal footprint of associated drivers, makes them one of the few viable options for integrating haptic feedback into smart rings. This technology allows for the addition of tactile notifications and interactions without significantly increasing the overall size of the device.
Smallest Footprint
Our haptic solution offers the most compact design available, ideal for the limited space in smart rings.
Unparalleled Power Efficiency
Smart rings' small batteries demand low power consumption. Our solution uses 10x less power than LRA or ERM technologies.
Integrated Force Sensing
Piezo actuators double as force sensors, enabling smart rings to function as input devices, a feature currently unavailable in other technologies.
