Your surface becomes the control.
We take your surface or part and convert it into an intelligent touch interface. A countertop, a shower wall, a window frame, an exterior automotive component, a mirror cabinet. The product your customers already know becomes the control they interact with. No separate buttons, no third-party controllers, no design compromise.
Convert your product surface
into a digital interface.
Your surface or part does not need a separate control sitting on top of it. It can become the control.
Your surface or part becomes an intelligent touch interface. No separate controls. No cutouts. No bezels. No design compromise.
Your existing product surface is the interface.
You own the interface, the user experience, and the technology roadmap. No third-party dependency. Your product stands out.
A passive surface becomes an active, value-adding digital product.
Your product, activated.
Most manufacturers who need a control interface source it from a third party. A module gets mounted on or into the product. A cutout is made, a bezel added, wires routed. The control is visible, physically separate from the product itself. The manufacturer has limited influence over the technology inside, the user experience, and where it goes next.
Our approach is different. We attach our component to the back of your surface, or integrate it within or into the material itself. Your surface becomes the activation area. There is no separate control, no cutout, no bezel. The interface is there when you touch it and gone when you don't. You keep full ownership of the product design, the user experience, and the technology direction.
This is a product transformation, not a component swap. A surface or part that was passive becomes active. A product that was mechanical becomes digital. And a product that was one thing becomes something more.
Some manufacturers also develop their own controls and electronics. In those cases, we work alongside your engineering team from day one, integrating and co-designing so both sides connect cleanly.
Proven across surfaces and materials.
Every material has different acoustic properties, thickness, damping characteristics, and assembly requirements. Making piezo sensing work reliably through a specific material is not guesswork. It starts with your material sample and your application requirements.
We measure, model, and validate for your specific material. Acoustic transmission, surface damping, thermal expansion, adhesion behaviour, and thickness tolerance are all part of the engineering process. The result is a module that works reliably in your product, in your environment, across your production tolerances.
Want to explore what is possible with your product?
Send us a sample of your material or part. We run a proof of concept and show you what your surface can do. No commitment, no minimum order. Just your material and our engineering.
From your surface to a production-ready product.
We move fast and work closely with your team. You stay in control throughout the process.
Timelines depend on complexity. Simple integrations can be faster. Multi-material or automotive programmes may require more development time. We give you a clear timeline in the first conversation.
Engineered for your production and assembly process.
The module we design must be assembled efficiently and repeatably in your production environment. This is a design constraint from day one, not an afterthought. RNC engineers the module, the mounting interface, and the assembly method together.
For high-volume applications, seconds matter. Assembly targets are defined early and engineered for throughout development. For lower volumes, the priority shifts to ease of integration and consistent quality. In both cases, the goal is a straightforward, repeatable process your team can execute reliably.
