Headphones with the I-Scan^® System

Designing comfortable fitting headphones can be a challenging task. Product design engineers must be able to design a product that is comfortable across a vast population of people, while keeping manufacturing costs low. The I-Scan pressure and force measurement system and pressure sensors offer a means to quantify the ergonomics of various headphone designs and objectively compare designs across customers, as well as perform comparative testing between products and competitor抯 products. The I-Scan provides data in real-time and 2-D or 3-D pressure displays. Areas experiencing high pressures can easily be identified, compared and adjusted thus saving time in design verification and re-engineering costs. Sensors are available in different shapes and pressure ranges, are reusable, and provide accurate pressure data. With the help of Tekscan抯 highly qualified sales and engineering support team, each system can be configured to meet your specific needs.
