Touch Haptics Test System
The Touch Haptics Test System is a precision laboratory instrument designed to evaluate the tactile perception and haptic quality of automotive interior materials. The system measures key parameters such as indentation force, rebound force, sliding friction, stick-slip behavior, and surface roughness under controlled conditions, providing objective data for material selection, design optimization, and quality control. This ensures user comfort, perceived luxury, and consistent tactile experience in vehicle interiors.
