IFTech Inventing Future Technology IncCo-founded by father-and-son team Michael and Brodie Stanfield in Durham Region, IFTech Inventing Future Technology Inc. develops ARAIG, a wearable multisensory force-feedback suit for immersive gaming, training, and simulation. Its solution-agnostic operating system connects the suit to existing virtual platforms, translating digital events into localized touch, motion, and sound. The company’s work earned the Young Entrepreneur award in Durham’s 2015 Ignite competition.334118COAL TOWNSHIP, PA
ButtKicker HapticsFor more than 20 years, ButtKicker Haptics has been known for tactile feedback technology that lets people feel the low-frequency effects behind simulated and recorded experiences. Based in Westerville, Ohio, the company develops haptic transducers for gaming and home entertainment, with its HaptiConnect software extending that experience for sim racing and flight simulation.WESTERVILLE, OH
Telefactor Robotics LLCTelefactor Robotics develops advanced vision, dexterity, and control systems that let robots carry out human-directed work, with a particular focus on bomb-disposal and other hazardous remote operations. Based on more than a decade of research and development, its technology includes head-aimed telepresence, rugged low-power camera systems, and dexterous robotic grippers designed to integrate with existing robotic platforms. The company’s work is grounded in the idea of “telefactor”—a robotic system that mimics the motions of a remote operator.334220CONSHOHOCKEN, PA
