Cambridge Touch Technologies, which develops 3D touch screen systems, raises an investment of undisclosed size from Cambridge University's commercialisation arm.
Cambridge Touch Technologies (CTT), a Cambridge University spinout developing 3D touch screen technology, has raised an undisclosed amount of seed funding from Cambridge Enterprise, the institution’s tech transfer office.
Cambridge Touch Technologies has developed touch screen systems that not only register when a user has pressed the screen but also measure the force being exerted by multiple fingers. The technology can be fitted to larger screen sizes without impacting battery life.
This provides app developers with additional ways to display data by using “peek and pop” or “left-click” style options.
Corbin Church, chief executive of Cambridge Touch Technologies, said: “We have added in improved performance and taken out the complexity. The technology can now be adapted in more formats and deployed in a larger part of the market at a lower cost.”
Anne Dobree, head of Cambridge Enterprise Seed Funds, said: “It is fantastic to see university technology have such a tangible impact on the world. We are excited to see what CTT has in store next.”
