University of Waterloo Capstone Tackles Physical Strain in Medical Imaging

May 26, 2026

Interface case study highlights the LARS project by the Capstone Symposium Team at the University of Waterloo. The Load Assistance for Reduced-Strain Sonography medical solution is a semi-robotic articulated arm engineered to aid with probe force application while keeping the sonographer fully in control of the procedure. The medical system, using an Interface load cell, integrates directly into existing clinical workflows and provides assistive support without disrupting the established scanning methods of the medical professional.

IO-Link Load Cells 101

August 14, 2025

Interface 1200 and Model 1201 Series IO-Link Universal and Compression-Only Load Cells are IO-Link compatible load cells that offer precision force measurements with the benefits of digital communication. They connect directly to an IO-Link Master without requiring any additional electronics. This not only simplifies installation but also ensures a clean, noise-free digital signal. The digital point-to-point connection of IO-Link offers a manufacturer-independent, fieldbus-independent communication technology. IO-Link allows intelligent connection of sensors and actuators to automation systems. The comprehensive, standardized communication with each IO-Link capable sensor enables additional sensor data, transmission of measurement and switching signals without losses, and numerous independent diagnostic functions.
