Improved Tactile Sensors

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1988
Abstract Next generation robot grippers should be equipped with tactile sensors providing a sense of touch similar to the human hand by measuring the local distribution of forces on the surface. In this Paper two realized sensor types are presented. The first type of tactile sensors are capacitive sensors.

CMOS Dynamic Tactile Sensor

2017 New Generation of CAS (NGCAS), 2017
In this paper, we present a novel event-driven Dynamic Tactile Sensor (DTS) for artificial devices. The sensor is based on the POSFET (Piezoelectric-Oxide-Semiconductor-Field-Effect-Transistor) as the tactile sensing device with the change detector (CD) circuit of the DVS (Dynamic Vision Sensor) [1] as a readout circuit.

FERROPIEZOELECTRIC TACTILE SENSOR ARRAY

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1994
Abstract A ferroelectric array sensor of a functional type for primary processing of tactile information, representing a homogeneous field of sensors in an active PZT ceramic substrate, has been developed. The results, obtained by physical-mathematical simulation of certain array sensor element, which is a non resonance piezoelectrical transformer ...

Biomimetic Tactile Sensor

ASME 2007 2nd Frontiers in Biomedical Devices, 2007
The performance of prosthetic hands and robotic manipulators is severely limited by their having little or no tactile information compared to the human hand. Technologies such as MEMS, microfluidics, and nanoparticles have been used to produce arrays of force sensors, but these are generally not robust enough to mount on curved, deformable finger pads ...

Silicon Three-axial Tactile Sensor

Proceedings of the International Solid-State Sensors and Actuators Conference - TRANSDUCERS '95, 1996
Abstract A novel three-axial tactile sensor based on the differential capacitive principle is presented. The sensor is fabricated using IC processing and bulk-micromachining technology. Normal and shear forces are detected by capacitor arrays under force mesas.

Compliant tactile sensor

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1989
A tactile sensor which simultaneously provides a compliant interface between a support element and an object to be handled (i.e., a robot gripper in a delicate component), and identifies the contact force and the contact pattern between the object and the support element.

Tactile sensor pad: shape recognition

Proceedings of Tenth International Symposium on Intelligent Control, 2002
Most robot tactile sensing research has focused on object shape recognition with tactile sensors. In this paper we examine the model of a tactile pad sensor, assumed to be a finite dimension medium. The model of the tactile pad sensor is obtained using an integral relation between the boundary conditions and the stress tensor.

Multimodal Tactile Sensor

2014
We have developed a finger-shaped sensor array (BioTacĀ®) that provides simultaneous information about contact forces, microvibrations and thermal fluxes, mimicking the full cutaneous sensory capabilities of the human finger. For many tasks, such as identifying objects or maintaining stable grasp, these sensory modalities are synergistic.
