Sensory feedback provided by prosthetic hands shows promise in increasing functional abilities and promoting embodiment of the prosthetic device. However, sensory feedback is limited based on where ...

Using their Mosquito fabrication method, the researchers created a fan-out pattern of multiple thin light paths inside a thin sheet of PDMS. This created four optical channels that could be used for ...

While engineers have long optimised electronics for performance, efficiency and form factor, a shift is now underway ...

A new publication from Opto-Electronic Sciences; DOI 10.29026/oes.2024.240005, discusses advances in optical micronanofiber enabled tactile sensors and soft actuators. As a perfect combination of ...

For over three decades, Tekscan, a pioneer in the realm of tactile sensing, has been at the forefront of market innovation and application mastery. Originating from a groundbreaking thin-film flexible ...

Why would one of the most sophisticated humanoid robots in the world want to get up from the floor in a way no human ever would? The answer lies deep in the interaction between sensor limitations, ...

Researchers have developed a flexible optical touch sensor that can simultaneously detect the strength and location of pressure with high sensitivity and stability. The advance in tactile sensing ...
