How Elsi Technology Works

The technology around Elsi^® Smart Floor is similar to today's touchpads and tablet computers; so it's reliable and safe.

Touchpads operate in one of several ways, including capacitive sensing and conductance sensing. The most common technology used as of 2010, entails sensing the capacitive virtual ground effect of motion on the floor, together with the position of a user´s fingers on the relative position on the operating system's screen.

Elsi^® Smart Floor is the operating system; it tracks the motion and position of human bodies relative to their positions on the floor, e.g., in elderly care homes or senior care home apartments, etc.
