Artimus Robotics designs and manufactures soft electric actuators as a component supplier across multiple industries

Humans have created many technologies to produce motion. Motors, gears, pistons, compressors - these inventions are remarkable achievements, yet they are all inferior to motion designs found in nature.

Rigid metal parts that pop, grind, or whine cause problems and tradeoffs that must be separately mitigated. These traditional technologies are expensive, inefficient, loud, heavy, and complex.

Instead of continuing down the path of slow and rigid metal-based technology, humans should leverage nature’s hard work and develop soft motion technologies more similar to natural muscles.

Robotics and automation technologies have demonstrated rapid advances in software, vision, and control, but the enabling hardware technology has not kept up. These advances have opened the door to virtual worlds, yet our methods of interacting with those virtual worlds are primitive.

Boréas Technologies Inc. is a semiconductor company on a mission to innovate and market high-voltage, low-power integrated circuits for haptic applications using piezoelectric actuators and sensors. Our target markets encompass smartphones, laptop touchpads, automotive, virtual reality, and augmented reality.
 
Our flagship product, the BOS1901, is the world's most energy-efficient piezoelectric controller, built on our patented CapDriveTM technology. Developed by our founder, Simon Chaput, during his doctoral studies at Harvard University, this revolutionary technology offers numerous competitive advantages:

• Up to 20 times less energy consumption compared to competitors.
• The smallest integration footprint in the market.
• The ability to generate haptic sensations and sense pressure using the same actuator/sensor.
• Industry-leading response time (< 300 µs).
• Recently introduced, the BOS1921 builds upon the BOS1901's success, featuring exceptional sensing capabilities for an even more immersive and responsive user experience, pushing the boundaries of piezoelectric haptic technology.

Our innovative capacitive buttons and haptic trackpads have also transformed user interactions with technology. These cutting-edge solutions, powered by our BOS0614 piezoelectric driver and CapDriveTM architecture, offer dynamic controls with localized haptic feedback, making devices more versatile and intuitive.
 
Our haptic trackpads, equipped with advanced piezoelectric haptic feedback technology, provide a silent, natural user experience, enhancing users' precision and ease of use. These innovations showcase Boréas' commitment to delivering advanced technology for exceptional user experiences.

Founded in 2015, bHaptics is a full-body haptic solutions innovator, committed to bringing haptics to everyday life through cross-platform support from VR to PC and Music.
 
bHaptics provides a wide range of consumer-grade haptic devices, called the TactSuit series, and software tools for easy and quick haptic integration. 

bHaptics has partnered with numerous VR developers to make the haptics technology available for end users. As a result, over 150 VR titles now provide native support for TactSuit to maximize the level of immersion through haptic feedback that is perfectly in sync with events in each content. 
bHaptics strives to develop more advanced haptic devices for consumers and recently announced TactGlove, consumer-ready haptic gloves which are compatible with camera-based hand tracking systems, such as Meta Quest 2

Founded in 1982, Pickering Laboratories Inc. manufactures product testing solutions used for both the initial product development as well as ongoing quality and materials testing. Our line of artificial body fluids includes our proprietary human mimics, such as eccrine and apocrine perspiration. We have expanded our product line to include saliva, urine, lung fluid and blood. These complex solutions are the perfect choice for evaluating wearables under actual wear conditions. Pickering Laboratories also manufactures body fluids made to official product testing specifications from AATCC, ISO, DIN, BS, EN and other worldwide standards organization. Our analytical chemistry expertise and quality manufacturing ensure outstanding batch reproducibility and precise formulations.  Custom formulations are also routinely produced with the same guarantee of precision and reproducibility. Our customer base uses our artificial body fluids in a wide range of applications including: durability studies, colorfastness testing and other assorted medical applications.

Polytec offers advanced instrumentation for fast and precise measurement, analysis, and visualization of vibration. Our instruments utilize laser doppler vibrometry to provide real-time, non-contact vibration measurements with sub-nanometer resolution. Our instruments are widely used in the field of Haptics for the commercial development of products that utilize mechanical vibration for haptic feedback.  This includes measuring the displacement of actuators, studying the propagation of vibration across media that the user interacts with, and mapping vibration spatially. Our PSV-500 scanning vibrometer produces state-of-the-art 3D animations of deflection shapes over areas of interest. Our latest breakthrough is the QTec® vibrometers, which offer dropout-free data with unmatched data quality for measurements on challenging surfaces (including skin). We invite you to visit our booth to experience our latest technology.

TDK offers the PiezoHapt™ and PowerHap™ haptic solutions for a wide range of applications including smart phones, major appliances, in-vehicle infotainment, telematics controls, industrial robots, medical displays and much more. 
TDK ultra-thin PiezoHapt™ is an actuator that enables haptic capabilities in a variety of applications. These ultrathin vibration units are comprised of a multilayer piezoelectric element and a vibration plate, and its body is thinner than other existing vibrators such as eccentric motors.
TDK PowerHap™ is an innovative piezo actuator offering haptic feedback and integrated sensor functionality that provides many features to enhance the sensory experience. Features include very low insertion height, but provides high acceleration, high force, and a large displacement, providing a strong click-like feedback to the user.
