During the last decades, smart tactile sensing systems based on different sensing
techniques have been developed due to their high potential in industry and biomedical …

Conventional visual perception technology is subject to many restrictions, such as
illumination, background clutter, and occlusion. Many intrinsic properties of objects, like …

Soft tactile skins can provide an in-depth understanding of contact location and force
through a soft and deformable interface. However, widespread implementation of soft robotic …

Attaching a flexible tactile skin to an existing robotic system is relatively easy compared to
integrating most other tactile sensor designs. In this paper we show that material …

This paper presents a multi-axis force/torque sensor based on simply-supported beam and
optoelectronic technology. The sensor's main advantages are:(1) Low power …

Abstract All Hall Effect-based soft force sensors developed so far employ a piece of solid
Neodymium magnet, which is literally a rigid component. In addition, quick saturation of …

Neuroscience studies have proved that the absence of proper tactile feedback can affect
human behavior. A qualitative and quantitative growth in flexible artificial touch sensing …

This paper describes the modeling of a soft three-axis force sensor. The sensor has a
cylindrical cantilever beam made of silicone rubber that compresses and bends when …

The lack of sensory feedback provided by prosthetic hands dramatically limits the utility of
the device. Peripheral nerve interfaces are now able to produce stable somatosensory …

While in most industries, most processes are automated and human workers have either
been replaced by robots or work alongside them, fewer changes have occurred in industries …
