The Tactilus® solid state sensor/switch allows the user to control any device, equipment or peripheral that allows for operation in variable states. Any application where a user would benefit from going beyond a simple on/off control is a viable candidate for these ultra flat switches.

Tactilus® switches are low profile (paper thin), customizable to accommodate limited real estate, economical, draw minimal current, and last for thousands of uses. As the user lightly depresses the switch with their finger the resistance value changes and provides your circuit.
