Protective and Collision‐Sensitive Gel‐Skin: Visco‐Elastomeric Polyvinyl Chloride Gel Rapidly Detects Robot Collision by Breaking Electrical Charge Accumulation Stability

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
For safe human–robot collaboration (HRC), a protective and collision‐sensitive robot skin is proposed. The developed robot skin, named Gel‐Skin, is composed of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) gel, which is a functional material with impact absorption capability and tunable piezoresistive characteristics based on electrical charge‐accumulation.
