leaning away from the mouse and keyboard combo, the sensel ‘morph’ offers a new generation of multi touch interaction is powered by pressure grid technology in the form of an input device that allows user to interact with computers and programs in a whole new way. with its dynamic range of force sensitivity – 20,000 individual sensors, the ‘morph’ can not just fingers but any object, from a paintbrush to a drumstick. it works with many applications, and it’s also hackable for those more technically inclined. they can be connected to a computer through a USB, or to a tablet using a bluetooth connection.
the touch pad has multi gesture capabilities
the use of overlays, all of which are automatically detected, are optional additions made of thin, flexible layer that can be placed over the device to provide a visual map and tactile feedback for each mode’s unique functionality. partnering with frog design, the partnership refined and tested core use cases for the ‘morph’. the result is a device the size of regular tablet, ideal for two handed interactions. the ‘morph’ is lined with magnets which enables for simple expansion, for things like creating a 96 key piano.
ideal for mixing music and adding beats
sensel’s mission from the start was to address the mismatch between the expressive capabilities of hands and the restrictive interfaces of today’s devices. they want to enable innovative ways of interaction with digital devices and allow ‘morph’ users to unleash new possibilities in the worlds of music, art, gaming and design.
