Loadstar Sensors, Inc. of Mountain View is pleased to announce that it has received The Frost & Sullivan 2007 North American Product Innovation of the Year Award for its iLoad Series capacitive load sensors.

"Loadstar Sensors' capacitive sensing technology is helping to spearhead a new era of opportunities in load/force sensing. By integrating sensing, signal processing, and communications in a single package, Loadstar's sensors can significantly reduce the complexity of designing and incorporating such sensors into computerized measurement and control applications," said Peter Adrian, of Frost & Sullivan.

The iLoad Digital USB sensor is the world's first capacitive load sensor with USB output. These load sensors are designed to plug directly into the USB port of a PC and enable users to measure loads, forces or weights without need for any additional signal conditioning, data acquisition or special software!

"We are happy to receive recognition from Frost & Sullivan for the innovations we are bringing to the load sensor market. I am happy to receive this award on behalf of Loadstar's talented and dedicated team that has developed this elegant new technology. In particular, we want to thank the many early customers and partners who provided encouragement and feedback during the development process and our investors who have placed their faith in our abilities," said Div Harish, the Co-Founder and CEO of Loadstar Sensors.
