EndoTac: An Endoscopic Camera‐Based Tactile Sensor with High Sensitivity for Minimally Invasive Surgery

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
EndoTac presents a trocar‐compatible endoscopic vision‐based tactile sensor that uses a convex mirror to enlarge side‐facing tactile coverage during minimally invasive vessel palpation. Distorted tactile images are unwarped and processed by a learning model to estimate vascular deformation, enabling sensitive, spatially distributed tactile perception ...

An Innervated Human Skin Equivalent that Electrically Encodes Mechanical and Thermal Stimuli

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An innervated human skin equivalent is integrated with high‐density microelectrode arrays to reveal how engineered free nerve ending–like structures translate touch and temperature into electrical codes. Mechanical indentation and thermal stimulation engage the engineered somatosensory circuitry and evoke distinct firing and waveform signatures ...

Tactile perception of cognitive robots.

open access: yes, 2011
Compared to other modalities like vision, tactile sensing has been so far neglected by robotic researchers. At the time of writing, tactile sensing devices that can just approach the performance of the human sense of touch seem out of reach. Despite this fact the use and exploitation of available sensors should not be disregarded.

A Bioinspired, Multimodal Soft Tactile Skin with Task‐Adaptive Perception for Intelligent Robotic Manipulation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Perception in robotic manipulation improves through the cooperative and complementary operation of biologically inspired multimodal tactile sensors. Receptor‐specific contribution analysis identifies which sensing modalities are required for specific tactile tasks.

Towards Real‐Time Monitoring of Soft Robotic Systems in Endoscopic Application With Ultra‐Flexible Organic Transistor‐Based Strain Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
The integration of ultra‐flexible, all‐organic, field‐effect transistor‐based strain sensors to soft structures is reported for the development of sensorized soft robots. The envisaged application is the development of next‐generation, controllable, and observable soft robotic catheters for endoscopic applications, such as drug delivery. Mechanical and
