Sensing designs to enrich how we live

What is the ARGUS BOARD?
The ARGUS BOARD is a newly developed microcomputer board specialising in sensing. It offers high processing capability and a mounted FPGA that will support the development efforts of everyone from researchers to students working on sensing prototypes. General sales are scheduled to begin summer 2019.

Features: 

1. Microcomputer processing capability, which uses ESP32 (from Espressif systems) with high processing capability of 600 MIPS.
2. Connectable to A/D and D/A converters.
3. Mounted FPGA that aims to make microcomputer programming and processing simple, with no need to worry about converters.
4. Advanced security features as the mounted FPGA and ESP32 provide features to prevent intrusion and data exploitation. All boards a unique ID as well as an encrypted code.
5. Duplication of the board is extremely difficult with because the circuit program in the FPGA cannot be copied.

What is ARGUS BALANCE?
The ARGUS BALANCE is a ‘smart’ sensing chair that measures your heart rate, respiratory rate, and stress level by using highly sensitive piezoelectric sensors built into the seat to detect minute movements of your body. It uses chaos theory to analyse your levels of stress, relaxation, fatigue, and responsiveness.

This model is the third version in the series since it was developed in 2017, and its two sensors make the data it collects even more accurate. Its breathing algorithm also makes it possible to provide a visualisation of your respiratory rate and strength.

What is Sensoroid ATMOS II?
The Sensoroid ATMOS II is a humanoid sensing object capable of measuring various environmental conditions. By embedding sensors all over this object, you can visualise the environmental conditions an actual person would experience. The second version is an improvement upon the first model released in 2018 and is equipped with the original microcomputer ARGUS BOARD.

What is the Sensing Scape Studio?
The SENSING SCAPE STUDIO is a data visualisation technology that uses an original microcomputer board and algorithm to convert data collected from the surrounding environment, such as sound, light, and temperature, into a form of expression that can be experienced with our senses. It hopes to open a new world of sensing technology-based new media art and generates market value.

What is the REGEN BOARD?
The REGEN BOARD is a developed board system that enables energy to be gathered from micro power sources in the natural environment and boosted to a practical voltage. THK aims to create a system that can provide enough power for sensing and data transfer processes in a variety of environments for the rapidly evolving IoT industries of the near future.
