Competences

Conceptual Design

Central Midori engineers are here to help you make the right decisions in the early phase. Because even the smallest design changes can have a tremendous impact on product function.

We enable and enhance performance in three strategic areas:

Flexibility/elasticity: curve-able, bendable, foldable, rollable, conformal, stretchable designs  

Miniaturization/portability: creating thinner, lighter, smaller designs  

Security: designing anti-tamper mesh circuitry

Design Assistance

Layout Design: Create a detailed layout of the membrane switch, specifying the arrangement of buttons, switches, and any other features.
 

Material Selection: Choose suitable materials for each layer of the membrane switch, considering factors such as flexibility, durability, and environmental resistance.


Graphic Overlay Design: Design the graphic overlay with the required labels, symbols, and aesthetics. Consider user interface design principles.
 

Circuit Design: Develop the circuit layout, including conductive traces, contact points, and any additional components like domes for tactile feedback.
