Smartwatch Force Test
Smartwatches offer users a blend of convenience and innovation. Interaction forces for the user must be precise as different types of tasks are performed such as pressing, scrolling, and swiping.
Smartwatches offer users a blend of convenience and innovation. Interaction forces for the user must be precise as different types of tasks are performed such as pressing, scrolling, and swiping. A force test is needed during the development stage of smartwatches, verifying and validating its interaction design for users.
Interface’s 3AR Series Round 3-Axis Load Cell is adept at measuring and capturing forces by the user’s fingers across multiple axes (Fx, Fy, and Fx). Engineers will be able to determine and change sensitivity settings based on force results. Results are fed to the BX8-AS BlueDAQ Series Data Acquisition System and to the connected laptop where it is displayed with included BlueDAQ software.
Interface’s 3-Axis load cell successfully measured and captured the three axes (Fx, Fy, and Fx) during pressing, scrolling, and swiping tests during the smartwatch development stage.
