Sensors & technology
The details behind the feedback.
| Component | Purpose | This edition |
|---|---|---|
| Tatau Strike Core | The machine’s low-power brain reads every sensor many times a second, runs smart features on the machine and connects to a phone or iPad over Bluetooth. Updates arrive through the app. | Planned inclusion |
| Tatau Strike Motion Sensor | 6-axis motion sensing: three directions of movement and three of rotation. Reads angle, hand speed, shake and movement changes associated with fatigue; also supports drop detection and tap gestures. | Planned inclusion |
| Tatau Strike Pressure Sensor | Reads how hard the needle is pressed into the skin for live feedback. | Planned inclusion |
| Tatau Strike Depth Sensor | Reads needle stroke and depth as the needle moves. Needle depth measurements are shown in inches. | Planned inclusion |
| Tatau Strike Grip Sensors | Thin pressure zones read grip strength and finger balance. The planned system compares grip with needle pressure to flag squeezing that may compensate for a poor angle, and supports an artist grip signature. | 4 zones |
| Tatau Strike Skin Temperature Sensor | A no-touch heat sensor aimed at the needle point supports overworked-skin warnings and practice-versus-live skin checks. Reference examples: practice material around room temperature, about 70–75°F, and live skin about 90°F. Temperature varies; the apprentice workflow also uses mentor approval and camera/depth confirmation. | Planned inclusion |
| Tatau Strike Machine Temperature Sensor | Monitors motor and body temperature. Designed to warn, lower power and pause when the machine approaches its operating temperature limits. | Planned inclusion |
| Tatau Strike Haptic Motors | Small motors in the grip give directional cues: left/right, and top-direction cues on PRO. Also carry alerts and mentor guidance. Motor count and patterns depend on edition. | 3 motors |
| Tatau Strike Display | An LED ring shows machine mode, depth level where supported, alerts and battery. PRO uses a full-color ring. | Planned inclusion |
| Tatau Strike Depth Control | PRO motorized auto-depth sets depth, stroke and power from the skin profile chosen in the app. The artist can always fine-tune by hand; in apprentice mode the mentor sets the permitted range. S is manual; SE adds suggested depth. | Motorized auto-depth with artist override |
| Tatau Strike Tip Camera | The PRO tip camera watches only the needle point for stencil tracking and a shading coverage map that counts passes over an area. It does not watch the client, room or station. | Planned inclusion |
| Tatau Strike Cartridge Reader | Reads a chip in each cartridge to log needle type and lot number, identify a fresh cartridge and reject one retired from another client’s session. Also supports tap-in badges and wristbands through gloves. Included on SE and PRO. | Planned inclusion |
| Tatau Strike Onboard Memory | Buffers the session on the machine if the phone or iPad connection drops, then syncs when the connection returns. Designed to help retain session records through connection gaps; final capacity and retention behavior are to be confirmed. | Planned inclusion |
| Tatau Strike Security Chip | A signed serial number supports a phone-tap genuine check, owner registration, warranty and service history, plus theft lock. | Planned inclusion |
Two swappable rechargeable packs. Runtime: [BATTERY HOURS]. All three editions target the same body size; dimensions: [BODY SIZE IN INCHES].

A closer look inside.
The component list follows the V2 edition package. Shapes and internal positions are illustrative, not manufacturing CAD. Onboard memory on S/SE remains to be confirmed.
Connected app / iPhone, iPad, Android
Artist guidance that matches your machine.
Talk with the planned live AI instructor in the Tatau Strike app: ask technique questions, hear explanations and receive artist guidance through your earbuds or speaker. The AI supports the artist; the artist is always in control. Conversational voice Coming is in development.
Live readings and manual settings come with the Free app foundation. Voice level: Full AI artist guidance. The app uses this edition’s metal color and shows its supported features.
Optional paid tools are limited by the machine’s hardware. S does not gain a tip camera or auto-depth through a subscription; upgrading the machine expands compatible lessons and artist guidance.
PRO supports the mentor dashboard, five apprentice levels, classroom mode, optional station-camera checks and compliance records. Remote mentoring Coming and the client break button Coming are in development.
