  Brighter Signals builds flexible pressure and proximity sensors embedded in fabric-like materials that enable machines to detect touch, pressure and movement. Its technology targets automotive safety systems, industrial automation and robotics, and the company is engaged in more than a dozen proof-of-concept projects with automotive manufacturers and Tier 1 suppliers. The startup recently raised €1.6 million in a financing package that combined venture backing from Wake Up Capital and ELOKON Ventures with regional innovation funding and a Eurostars grant. Proceeds will be used to expand product development, scale hardware and algorithms, and improve software and data-interpretation systems that convert sensor outputs into usable inputs for vehicles and robots. Brighter Signals says the funding will support expanding pilot programs and help move some projects toward larger commercial deployments over the next one to two years.
