Somatic Labs
We're designing for a future without screens - starting with a platform for haptic communication.
We’ve developed Zorb, a full-stack platform that uses the sense of touch to convey information. We provide more than an ordinary tap or vibration. The Zorb Platform enables the delivery of real-time information (alerts, instructions, directions) through rich vibro-tactile patterns that move across a user’s skin. Our patented technology allows the rapid creation of high resolution tactile patterns consisting of pulses, shapes, directions, and complex illusions of motion.
