IMADA's force-displacement tester determines click feeling of tactile switches. In the video, the tester presses a switch, measuring the resistance force and graphing the measurement. The remarkable thing is that the tester presses switches by pre-set displacement. In other words, to determine the click feeling, you need to measure displacement as well as force. Then, the tester graphs force transition with reference to displacement, helping identify the hysteresis (zero reversion). Thus, the force-displacement tester handles various characteristic evaluation other than click feeling of switches.
