The Seating Mat Development Kit by Sensing Tex is a modular system for multiple applications in the body pressure measurement field. It can be used for product development in health, wellness for bedding or seating applications such as measure and monitor patient position, evaluate patient comfort, identify pressure on risk areas, measure position for wellness purposes among other applications.

The main application of this Seating Mat Development Kit is for ulcer prevention in reduced mobility persons. The sensor mats provided allows the detection of non uniform pressures in a certain surface (e.g. cushion) which for a long time could end up making skin ulcers.

An accurate monitoring of the pressure will allow generate alarms or other way of interacting with the monitored person (or personal taking care of him/her) to reduce the risk due to large periods of pressure in a certain parts of the body.
