InnovationLab announced that it was selected by the Organic and Printed Electronics Association (OE-A) as the winner of the "Best Prototype/New Product" category at the OE-A Competition 2021.
The winning product was OccluSense by Bausch, a dental pressure measuring system.
OccluSense is the first digital articulating paper for measuring occlusion –how a person’s teeth make contact– that has medical certification (class 1), according to InnovationLab.
OccluSense is a compact, battery-powered device and consists of a disposable printed sensor foil and a reusable read-out unit.
The printed pressure sensor matrix enables the monitoring of biting pressure distribution with more than 1,000 pixels which are read at a frequency of up to 150 Hz.
OccluSense then sends the information wirelessly to a cloud, a tablet or similar.
The product has already been sold in over 60 countries.
"Winning the recognition of OE-A and its judges is very special for us – it is the global association that everyone in our industry respects, and we are delighted that they have chosen Occlusense for this award," said Luat Nguyen, managing director, InnovationLab.
