Artificial Robot Skin
Institute for Cognitive Systems, Technical University of Munich
A multimodal tactile-sensing module for humanoid robots. By integrating various sensing technologies, this module enables robots to perceive complex tactile information such as force, pressure, temperature, and texture….
Event-Driven Visual-Tactile Sensing and Learning for Robots
Tasbolat Taunyazov
NeuTouch is a neuromorphic fingertip tactile sensor that scales well with the number of taxels. The proposed Visual-Tactile Spiking Neural Network (VT-SNN) also enables fast perception when coupled with event sensors. The proposed visual-tactile system (using the NeuTouch and Prophesee event camera) is evaluated on two robot tasks: container classification and rotational slip detection….
Prosthesis with Neuromorphic Multilayered E-dermis
Luke Osborn and others
A multilayered electronic dermis (e-dermis) with properties based on the behavior of mechanoreceptors and nociceptors to provide neuromorphic tactile information for an amputee….
Skin-Inspired Flexible and Stretchable Electrospun Carbon Nanofiber Sensors for Neuromorphic Sensing
Debarun Sengupta and others
An approach entailing carbon nanofiber–polydimethylsiloxane composite-based piezoresistive sensors, coupled with spiking neural networks, to mimic skin-like sensing….
