Extract text from FSX files
To convert your FSX file to another format, you need I-Scan or other Data software.
To convert other file formats to the "Tactile Force Measurement" file type, you need software like I-Scan or a similar tool.
The .FSX extension serves two distinct communities with very different needs. primarily, it represents a Tekscan Pressure Measurement file used by the I-Scan system. These are proprietary binary recordings - essentially "tactile movies" - that capture force and pressure distribution over time from thin-film sensors. The primary issue for engineers and researchers is that these files are locked to the licensed Tekscan environment; you cannot simply double-click them on a standard PC to view the data. To share findings with clients or colleagues, you must convert the recording to AVI for visual playback or export the raw sensor data to CSV (ASCII) for analysis in Microsoft Excel or MATLAB.
Secondarily, .FSX is a Visual F# Script file. These are plain text source code files used by developers to run code snippets immediately via F# Interactive (FSI) without compiling a full project. While these open easily in any text editor like Visual Studio Code or Notepad++, developers often need to "convert" them into executable binaries (result.exe) or simpler text formats (code.txt) for documentation.
Convert.Guru analyzes your FSX file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted TRA, VMD and MPH files.
If you want to convert FSX file to JS, TS, PY, JAVA, CPP, C, CS, PHP, RB, GO, RS or SWIFT, you can use I-Scan or similar software from the "Pressure Measurement Recording" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert SH, PY, KT, PS1, SWIFT, LUA, PL, JAVA, SCALA, JS, VBS or TS files to FSX, try I-Scan or another comparable tool in the "Pressure Measurement Recording" category.
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our FSX converter.
