Boreas Technologies

Boreas Technologies develops ultra-low power piezo haptic driver ICs, providing the most advanced piezo driver platform built for peak performance in haptic feedback applications. The company's proprietary CapDrive technology delivers 10x lower power consumption than competitors by recovering energy from the actuator, 4x smaller footprint by eliminating bulky external components, and integrated force sensing that fuses the driver and sensor into one chip for zero-lag, context-aware feedback. The product portfolio includes the BOS1921 (ultra-low power with advanced sensing), BOS0614 (multi-channel), BOS1901 (ultra-low power), and BOS1211 (powerful driver for automotive applications), along with corresponding evaluation kits and the Boreas Haptic Studio software. Boreas serves multiple application areas including smartphones (solid-state piezo buttons replacing mechanical switches), computers (haptic trackpads, mice, and styluses), micropumps (microfluidic cooling for edge AI devices), automotive, and AI glasses (localized high-definition feedback on thin temple arms). The company provides the Boreas Blueprint, a validated reference architecture that unifies driver, sensing algorithms, and physical mounting to accelerate development from concept to production-ready prototype. With roots at Harvard University, 30+ patents, and over 2 million units deployed, Boreas is headquartered in Bromont, Canada. Founded in 2016, the company has raised $12.0M in Series B funding from investors including Fonds Innovexport, Anges Quebec, ACET, and Sustainable Development Technology Canada.
