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.
Scientists have developed a low-cost, durable, and highly sensitive robotic 'skin' made from a gelatin-based material that can detect various tactile sensations, including touch, temperature, and damage, using a single multi-modal sensor. This innovation could enhance robots and prosthetics with a sense of touch, with potential applications in humanoid robots, automotive, and disaster relief sectors.
