“These guys, who were the architects of Eleksen's wearable products and emerging eSystem strategy, understand better than anyone in the industry how to move the wearable electronics to the mass market. We're excited about this new partnership.”

The team at QIO Systems is being led by John Collins, CEO of QIO Systems and former VP of Marketing and Business Development at Eleksen, and Vassilis Seferidis, CTO of QIO Systems and former VP Product Management. John and Vassilis were responsible for the initial development of Eleksen's wearable electronics product lines and the innovation which drove Eleksen to the top of the wearable electronics market. They are being joined at QIO System by several key Eleksen team members.

The company is already accepting orders for delivery of ElekTex products and electronics directly or through its sales and marketing partners.

Peratech is the inventor and world leader in Quantum Tunnelling Composite (QTC) technology. QTC's are electro-active polymeric materials which enable the action of 'touch' to be translated into an electrical reaction, enabling a vast array of devices to incorporate very thin and highly robust 'sensing' of touch and pressure.

Already widely used in robotics and defence, Peratech commercialised its QTC technology at the beginning of 2006 and is currently working with a number of key technology clients who are implementing QTC sensing technology within their own products.

QIO Systems is the wearable electronics spin-out of market leader Eleksen. QIO designs, develops and manufactures next generation accessory electronics for interactive apparel and soft goods applications supporting the seamless integration of mobile entertainment devices like MP3 players, cell phones, AM/FM/Digital radio, push-to-talk systems in consumers everyday lives.
