Linear position sensing
FSLP devices support smooth slider-style control in compact interfaces where tactile, low-profile input matters.

Position Sensors
Interlink position solutions extend core force-sensing capabilities into touch-driven position control for menu navigation and embedded interface design.
Force-based position control for embedded interfaces
The Force Sensing Linear Potentiometer (FSLP) detects position along a straight path, making it useful for volume sliders, linear movement controls, and home automation interactions where users expect smooth, tactile navigation.
The Ring Sensor uses related force sensing principles in a 360-degree format, giving teams a dial-like interface pattern that can be integrated into compact industrial and consumer products without adding complex mechanics.
For early-stage design and prototyping, Interlink offers HDK options with sensor and connector variations. If standard shapes are not a fit, the custom solutions team can modify dimensions, geometry, and stack-up details for application-specific position sensing requirements.
Why teams use them
- Linear and circular form factors for multiple interaction patterns
- Force-based position detection suitable for gloved and rugged use conditions
- Standard models plus custom geometry support when needed
- Prototype-to-production path with HDKs and engineering collaboration
Common application fit
- Appliance and home automation sliders
- Medical and laboratory control interfaces
- Industrial HMIs that must tolerate gloves and contamination
- Consumer electronics that need intuitive linear or rotary navigation
Platform options for design and validation
Interlink position sensing solutions support both direct product integration and early-stage evaluation. Start with standard platforms, then adapt geometry, stack-up, and interface behavior when your program needs something more application-specific.
Development kits
HDK options help teams validate feel, connector options, and integration behavior before locking geometry or electronics.

Need a different geometry or interface behavior?
If the standard linear or ring formats do not match your enclosure, force threshold, or connector requirements, Interlink can adapt materials, dimensions, and sensor layouts for a better fit. That includes support for concept validation, packaging constraints, and production readiness.
