Distributed Micropneumatic Sensors for Soft Robots to Detect Touch and Pose
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Soft robots need integrated touch and pose sensing for safe and reliable operation. This work presents a three‐fingered soft gripper with 18 micropneumatic sensors made from the same materials as its pneumatic actuators. By measuring airflow resistance changes in deforming microchannels of the sensors, finger pose and contact are detected, enabling ...
