About Sensel Sensel is building the next wave of interactive touch technologies to revolutionize how we physically communicate with the digital world. Our mission is to empower people to enjoy more intuitive and expressive interaction with their devices. Our cutting-edge architecture integrates touch-sensing, force-sensing, and haptics into a single solution, paving the way for our enterprise customers to create thinner form factors, advanced industrial designs, and exceptional customer experiences.

Sensel was founded in 2013 and in 2015 launched the award-winning Morph, which brought the infinite modularity of a touchscreen to a tactile controller. In 2021, Sensel entered the PC market, enabling the haptic touchpads in Lenovo's ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga and other laptops. In 2023, we supplied the haptic touchpads for Lenovoʼs ThinkPad X1 Fold 16, ThinkPad Z13 Gen 2, and ThinkPad Z16 Gen 2. In the near future, we'll be integrating our touch-sensing, force-sensing, and haptics technologies into more laptops, as well as automotive interfaces, phones, and other devices which rely on human touch.
