Metaphysiks' core technology, MetaTouch, is based on a decade of cutting-edge research in the laboratories of Metaphysiks' co-founder and world-leading neuroscientist, Prof. Olaf Blanke, MD. MetaTouch effectively connects the nervous system via the surface of the skin using neuroscience-based thermo-variant & haptic-tactile products, with the end goal of inducing or enriching conscious experiences integrated with digital environments.
Through its first product "STiLL", Metaphysiks is able to deliver rich bodily touch sensations that mimic physiological signals and deliver them in an integrated methodology, prompting the user's mind to generate conscious experiences.
Speaking on the recent round of funding, TNF Investments founder, Erkin Bek said: "We are delighted to support Metaphysiks' rollout of its cutting-edge immersive technology that will empower digital environments with new and rich tactile experiences, deeply rooted in neuroscience.
