Las Vegas, NV — At CES, UltraSense presented a forward-looking vision for how humans will interact with future devices. Rather than relying on traditional touchscreens or mechanical buttons, UltraSense is building solid-state ultrasonic interfaces that enable intuitive, durable, and design-friendly user interaction across multiple industries.
Founded with a focus on ultrasonic sensing, UltraSense has developed a platform that brings touch-based user interfaces to a wide range of markets, from consumer electronics and automotive to medical devices.
"Our focus is on user interface," said Max Mazzoni, Founder and CEO of UltraSense. "We use ultrasonic technology as a platform to bring touch user interfaces to many different markets, from high end consumer electronics to automotive and medical applications."
Expanding from Automotive into AR and AI Glasses
While UltraSense's core business has been deeply rooted in automotive modernization, CES marked a meaningful expansion into wearable technology, particularly AR and AI glasses.
"Our core business has been automotive," Mazzoni explained. "People want solid state solutions and new materials, which is what we have been showing."
This year, however, UltraSense highlighted how its ultrasonic technology can solve one of the biggest challenges facing smart glasses today. User interface design.
"With AR glasses, what you see today is often bulky plastic," Mazzoni said. "What we are trying to do is bring touch interfaces onto metal frames, making the glasses more fashionable while keeping everything solid state and seamless."
From a TechTimes perspective, this approach addresses a critical bottleneck in wearable adoption. Many AR and AI glasses struggle not with capability, but with usability and design acceptance.
Making Smart Glasses More Intuitive
UltraSense believes current interaction models for smart glasses are overly complex and unintuitive.
"There are so many functions on the glasses now, and the user interface has become a bottleneck," Mazzoni said. "We are bringing different inputs along the frame, all solid state, to make interaction more intuitive than what people use today."
Instead of multi-finger gestures or small trackpads, UltraSense is focused on simplifying interaction to match natural human behavior.
"We do not use multiple fingers on phones, so we should not use them on glasses either," Mazzoni added. "We want an average person to be able to use AI and AR glasses easily, without having to learn complex gestures."
This philosophy positions UltraSense as a company focused not just on enabling new hardware but on making advanced technology approachable for mainstream users.
Building the Foundation for Future Interfaces
Looking ahead, UltraSense sees ultrasonic sensing as a foundational technology for the next generation of smart devices.
"We are at the forefront of leading user interface innovation with our ultrasonic platform," Mazzoni said. "Our goal is to build the foundation of the user interface for the next generation of smart devices."
For TechTimes readers tracking emerging interface technologies, UltraSense stands out for its emphasis on durability, material flexibility, and intuitive interaction. By removing mechanical parts and enabling touch through metal and solid surfaces, the company is addressing both design freedom and long-term reliability.
At CES, UltraSense demonstrated that the future of user interaction may not be about adding more screens or buttons, but about rethinking how touch itself works across devices we use every day.
