What's In The Bed

  Mattress Retailers Can Now Use a

                            “No or Low Pressure” Sales Approach

Sensor Products’ Tactilus® Bodyfitter® System Identifies the Perfect Mattress for Retail  Customer
 

With the Tactilus® Bodyfitter® system introduced by Sensor Products LLC, retailers now have access to powerful, accurate and exceptionally valid tools for helping their customers choose precisely which mattress is right for them. This new system not only visually aids sales personnel by instantly producing a customized marketing brochure containing an individual’s pressure profile, but also makes a powerful statement to the buyer that the retailer is equipped to help them choose the best mattress using a scientific method.


The Tactilus® Bodyfitter® system is simple to use; it utilizes a thin, flexible electronic sensor element, similar in appearance to a bed sheet, which is positioned on top of a mattress. As a customer lies on each mattress, the sensor records pressure point readings and within seconds assimilates that data into a colorful pressure profile of the individual. Consumers see with their own eyes, which mattress produces the least amount of pressure points against their individual body.


Perhaps the most salient feature of the Tactilus® Bodyfitter® system, aside from its ‘plug and play’ attribute, is the personalized flyer it creates for each individual. The flyer is a tangible marketing piece which reveals a consumer’s pressure profile and prominently displays the mattress retailer’s name, logo, promotional text and contact information.


Other than a laptop computer, everything a retailer needs for attention-grabbing consultations is supplied with the Tactilus® Bodyfitter® system. The system includes the Tactilus® pressure mapping sensor, electronic hub, power supply, data cables, and Tactilus® software, which can also be customized to display the logo and information of the mattress retailer.


Sleep Innovations Engineer, Fred Natrin says, “The Tactilus® software makes it so simple to identify the pressures on the mattress. The ability and likelihood of buying the most comfortable mattress possible has now skyrocketed. I foresee this technology becoming a staple in the future for manufacturers and retailers alike.”
“With our newly developed RF wireless technology, this system is the safest, most convenient pressure profiling system available in the world for use on a showroom floor,” adds Jason Blume, Tactilus® Product Manager.


The system is available for lease or purchase, and demonstrations can be scheduled by contacting
