Soft tactile sensor and curvature sensor for caterpillar-like soft robot's adaptive motion
Proceedings of the 2019 International Conference on Robotics, Intelligent Control and Artificial Intelligence, 2019Soft robots are designed to interact safely with their environment and move through narrow place in a way a rigid robot cannot. In order for the soft robot to be completely soft, it should consist of as more as soft component. In this paper, a PneuNet soft robot imitating bionic caterpillar are fabricated.

Sensor Embedded Soft Fingertip for Precise Manipulation and Softness Recognition
IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters, 2021Up to this day, precise manipulation still relies on human hands, which benefits from the rich neural sensing in the fingertips. For robotic hands, force perception, recognizing the softness of objects, and detecting slip can significantly improve the grasping and manipulating abilities.

Soft Sensor Network for Environmental Monitoring
2016This paper shows the application of a soft sensor network for the detection of meteorological events. A set of hard (real) sensor are placed in a territory, where they measure heterogeneous quantities. Starting from their measurements, a soft sensor network provides useful information coming from the data.

3D printed resistive soft sensors
2018 IEEE International Conference on Soft Robotics (RoboSoft), 2018Sensor design for soft robots is a challenging problem because of the wide range of design parameters (e.g. geometry, material, actuation type, etc.) critical to their function. While conventional rigid sensors are effective for soft robotics in specific situations, sensors that are directly integrated into the bodies of soft robots could help improve ...

Soft sensored grippers in assembly process
Proceedings 1992 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2003The authors discuss the problem of assembly task realization using soft sensored fingers. Because the object grasped with soft fingers can move with respect to the gripper if an external force is applied, a change in the pressure corresponds to a change in the object position.

Soft sensors for on-line biomass measurements
Bioprocess and Biosystems Engineering, 2004One of the difficulties encountered in control and optimisation of bioprocesses is the lack of reliable on-line sensors for their key state variables. This paper investigates the suitability of using on-line recurrent neural networks to predict biomass concentrations. Input variables of the proposed recurrent neural network are feed rate, liquid volume

Contactless deflection sensor for soft robots
2011 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, 2011In the emerging field of soft robotics, there is an interest in developing new kinds of sensors whose characteristics do not affect the intrinsic compliance of soft robot components. Additionally, non-invasive shape and deflection sensors may provoke improved solutions to assist in the control of mechanical parts in these robots. Herein, we introduce a
