What is TG0?
TG0 provides a technology platform designed for designers and engineers to innovate physical user experiences by integrating digital interaction layers into products. Leveraging patented technology, TG0 transforms ordinary surfaces into touch-sensitive, pressure-mapping interfaces. This allows companies to create smarter, more sustainable, and highly user-centric products that offer ergonomic, intuitive, and responsive interactions.
The platform utilizes various sensing methods, including deformation sensing for 3D controls, capacitive tactile sensing for touchpads, precise pressure mapping, and gesture recognition for multi-touch interfaces. TG0's technology eliminates many traditional hardware design constraints, enabling seamless, single-surface designs protected against liquids, dirt, and dust. Supported by proprietary AI algorithms, a Software Development Kit (SDK), and APIs, the system intelligently processes interactions, adapts to users, and provides valuable data and analytics on user behaviour, while minimizing Bill of Materials (BOM) complexity.
