A different approach on sensitive skin for robots development

By Rob Aid
One Comment5 July 2011

tum-robot-skinResearchers at Technical University of Munich (TUM) are developing an artificial skin for robots to help them navigate in their environments. It will provide important tactile information to the robot and thus supplement its perception formed by camera eyes, infrared scanners and gripping hands. They have built a single robotic arm equipped with sensors to… »
