TESCLA: A Fully Soft Electromagnetic Linear Actuator With Continuous Bending Enabled by Liquid‐Metal Solenoids

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
TESCLA (tubular electromagnetic soft conformal linear actuator) combines liquid‐metal solenoids and compliant magnetic composites to achieve large‐stroke bidirectional actuation with continuous bending. Integrated inductance‐based self‐sensing enables proprioceptive position estimation without external sensors, providing a versatile platform for soft ...

Seeing by Touch: Evaluation of a Soft Biologically-Inspired Artificial Fingertip in Real-Time Active Touch [PDF]

, 2014
Effective tactile sensing for artificial platforms remains an open issue in robotics. This study investigates the performance of a soft biologically-inspired artificial fingertip in active exploration tasks. The fingertip sensor replicates the mechanisms

Bioengineered Interfaces for Peripheral Nerve Sensory Restoration

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Half of amputees abandon their prosthetics for lack of feeling. This review charts the full path from peripheral nerve injury to restored sensation, through surgical, regenerative, noninvasive, and implanted approaches, and shows how injury type and interface material properties determine which strategy can deliver naturalistic feedback, and why ...

Variation in the autism candidate gene GABRB3 modulates tactile sensitivity in typically developing children [PDF]

, 2012
Background: Autism spectrum conditions have a strong genetic component. Atypical sensory sensitivities are one of the core but neglected features of autism spectrum conditions. GABRB3 is a well-characterised candidate gene for autism spectrum conditions.

Data processing of tactile information for three-axis tactile sensor.

TRANSACTIONS OF THE JAPAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS Series C, 1990
In order to improve the intelligence of a robot with a sense of touch, we have developed a tactile sensor array which can detect the distribution of the three components of a force vector. The tactile sensor consists of a 6×15 matrix of 3×3 mm sensing sites; each site is made of two single-crystal silicon rings on which semiconductor strain gauges are ...

Hierarchical Multi‐Material Architectures With Gradient Design for Dynamic‐Range Flexible Tactile Sensing

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Hierarchical multi‐material TPMS lattices are engineered as flexible tactile sensors by combining soft and stiff elastomeric layers with a conformal conductive coating. The bilayer architecture delivers sensitivity at low pressures while maintaining a broad detectable range under large loads, enabling reliable pressure and vibration monitoring for ...
