It is increasingly difficult to build control interfaces that are both simple, intuitive and therefore safe to use, while maintaining acceptable costs and manufacturability. Conventional interface manufacturing relies on a large number of the sensors embedded inside. They are rigid, flat, uninspiring to use and complicated to produce. 
 
This project is based on a platform tactile sensing technology using only one uniform material that can be applied in automotive, consumer electronics and other markets. The project will provide a completely disruptive method of manufacturing 3 dimensional intuitive control interfaces with integrated dynamic illumination features.</ns2:abstractText></ns2:project>
