ams OSRAM Optical Force Sensing Solutions

Multi-modal control for next-generation interfaces

Optical force sensing transforms nearly any surface into an intelligent interaction zone. With proximity, touch, and pressure detection in a single interface, designers can create sleek ShyTech-style surfaces that illuminate only when needed and respond even through wet, gloved, or thick materials.

This technology enables intuitive, hygienic, and space-saving controls for automotive, industrial, and consumer systems.
 

AS7150 Analog Frontend

The AS7150 is a compact, ultra-low-power analog frontend designed for high-precision optical force and touch sensing. With sub-micrometer displacement resolution and ultra-low noise performance, it forms the core of discrete optical force sensing solutions.

Features

  • Ultra-low power analog frontend
  • Displacement resolution below 1 µm
  • Ultra-low noise architecture
  • Flexible connectivity to multiple optical frontends
  • Supports wet, gloved, and thick surface detection
  • Compact footprint

Applications

  • Automotive interior controls
  • Industrial human-machine interfaces
  • Consumer appliance touch panels
  • Medical device user interfaces

 

 

SFH 7061 Optical Frontend

The SFH 7061 is an ultra-slim Optical Frontend (OFE) designed for optical force and proximity sensing, integrating a 940 nm infrared (IR) LED emitter, a 940 nm-sensitive photodiode, and an integrated optical barrier that blocks optical crosstalk. Housed in a compact 1.8 × 1.0 × 0.5 mm package, it delivers high-performance sensing in space-constrained applications.

Features

  • Integrated 940 nm IR LED and photodiode
  • Built-in optical crosstalk suppression
  • Ultra-slim 1.8 × 1.0 × 0.5 mm package
  • Optimized for optical force and proximity sensing
  • High sensitivity at 940 nm

Applications

  • Multi-modal touch controls
  • Hidden surface interfaces
  • Automotive and industrial HMI
  • Proximity-enabled control panels

Evaluation Kit

AS7150-SFH 7061_EVM_KT

The AS7150 & SFH 7061 EvalKit is designed to evaluate force touch and proximity use cases. The board is constructed in a way that different touch surfaces can be inserted and evaluated. It provides flexibility to test different material types, thicknesses and reflectivities. Further, the distance between sensor board and touch surface can be varied.
