3D-Printed Skin Lets Robots Feel Touch
TL;DR Summary
Researchers demonstrated a skin-like, 3D-printed layer for robots that uses surface electrodes and electrical impedance tomography to map touch, achieving fairly accurate pressure mapping with just 16 electrodes and offering a scalable path for more natural robot and prosthetic sensing.
