artyst™ Footswitch

The artyst™ Footswitch is a 360° foot pedal designed to pair with the artyst™ Power Unit, allowing the artist to start and stop the machine without breaking eye contact with the client or compromising hand position during precision work.

The round design accepts pressure from any angle — the artist does not need to position their foot precisely, only tap anywhere on the surface. The rubberised underside grips smooth and textured studio floors, preventing slip during use.
