In the video, the device presses a push button, measures the resistance force, and graphically displays the measurement. In other words, to determine the “click feeling,” you need to measure both the travel and the force. Then, the change in force with respect to displacement is displayed graphically. The measurement system automatically detects the contact point of the sample and presses the switch with the preset distance, which improves repeatability and test efficiency.
