Robots now see the world with an ease that once belonged only to science fiction. They can recognise objects, navigate ...

Abstract: Vision-based tactile sensors have drawn increasing interest in the robotics community. However, traditional lens-based designs impose minimum thickness constraints on these sensors, limiting ...

Why auxetic materials offer some unique advantages in sensor fabrication. How additive manufacturing was used with autextic materials to create unique pressure and force sensors. The structure and ...

Robotic grippers are widely utilized in industrial manufacturing, but object slippage during assembly poses challenges, including potential damage, delays, and increased costs. Therefore, early slip ...

A NIMS research team has developed a new experimental method capable of rapidly evaluating numerous material compositions by measuring anomalous Hall resistivity 30 times faster than conventional ...

Abstract: Magnetic-based tactile sensors (MBTS) combine the advantages of compact design and high-frequency operation but suffer from limited spatial resolution due to their sparse taxel arrays. This ...
