Researchers develop low-cost sensor to enhance robots’ sense of touch

Researchers have developed an L3 F-TOUCH sensor to enhance tactile capabilities in robots, allowing it to ‘feel’ objects and adjust its grip accordingly.

Robots that feel heat, pain, and pressure? This new “skin” makes it possible

Researchers have created a revolutionary robotic skin that brings machines closer to human-like touch. Made from a flexible, low-cost gel material, this skin transforms the entire surface of a robotic hand into a sensitive, intelligent sensor. Unlike traditional robotic skins that rely on a patchwork of different sensors, this material…

Listening skills bring human-like touch to robots

Researchers give robots a sense of touch by 'listening' to vibrations, allowing them to identify materials, understand shapes and recognize objects just like human hands. The ability to interpret the world through acoustic vibrations emanating from an object -- like shaking a cup to see how much soda is left…
