Loomia created its tactile sensing developer kit after surveying 100 engineers as part of the NSF I-Corps program.

The sensor uses a stack up involving a camera, LEDs, and three layers of silicone to optically detect any disturbance of the skin. The scheme is modular and in this example uses four cameras but ...

Built your very own parking sensors for the car using nothing more than an Arduino board and cheap components you can find online ...

Set up Arduino UNO, sensors, and ICs as shown in the circuit diagram below. Open tactile_control.ino file within Arduino IDE. These test cases are desinged to be run using a Niryo NED robotic gripper.

Researchers at USC's Viterbi School of Engineering have developed a robot capable of identifying materials, thanks to a tactile sensor. The so-called BioTac sensor mimics the human finger, with ...

A research team has developed a new soft tactile sensor with skin-comparable characteristics. A robotic gripper with the sensor mounted at the fingertip could accomplish challenging tasks such as ...
