IoT Company Forciot

Forciot is a Finnish technology company that was born in December 2015 out of love for engineering challenges and sports. Group of leading wearable researchers from Tampere University of Technology and consumer electronics experts agreed to put their heart and passion into developing together unique innovation that would start a new era in electronics business. Founders noticed that world is lacking sensing technologies that could be part of products and surroundings that people use every day, everywhere.

Forciot is a fast-paced, award-winning scaleup company. The company offers cutting-edge stretchable electronics solution that enable customers to transform their products, to sense and interact with the changing world, in extraordinary new and sustainable ways to conquer growing markets. The Forciot technology works on and with several surface materials, which means it can be integrated into various products and equipment of different sizes and shapes. In addition, it can be used on both rigid and soft surfaces. Forciot’s stretchable electronics solution accurately measures a broad variety of parameters such as force, weight, load, balance, pressure, and touch in real time.

There are plenty of gadgets, but the team saw that in the future connected sensors need to be integrated directly into environments that we all are part of. Not as separate items but as integrated future. Forciot founders realized that they could bring this technology into markets. The forciot team wanted to change the world by providing IoT-sensor innovations that enable people to sense the world in new revolutionary ways.

Forciot is headquartered in Tampere and it develops advanced IoT sensor solutions. Forciot’s unique stretchable electronics solution can be integrated into products and equipment to measure and report accurately force, weight, balance and pressure. The innovative printed electronics solution can be utilized also as an HMI touch controller responding to gesture or to replace buttons in elastic environments when integrated as an example into car interiors. Due to the advanced reading algorithms and related machine learning elements, the Forciot system self-calibrates to assure accurate measurements and functionality during the lifecycle of the product. Forciot’s key business areas are automotive, logistics and wearable sectors.
