Why have tactile sensors not become widespread in the field of robotics, and why is this situation about to change? Amazon’s Vulcan is its first robot to utilize tactile sensing technology for fine manipulation. In tightly constrained grasping and placing scenarios, tactile sensing should be a disruptive key. While humans primarily rely on vision, we … Read more
Previously, we introduced the tactile sensors of humanoid robots. In fact, in addition to tactile sensors, robots require a total of four types of sensors: force sensors, tactile sensors, inertial measurement units, and visual sensors. Today, we will elaborate on these. Force Sensors Force sensors convert mechanical signals into electrical signals and are core to … Read more
