Some frustrated passengers are waiting for hours in line at airports around the country due to a stalemate over Department of Homeland Security funding, which has resulted in many Transportation ...

Abstract: In this letter, we present a touch technology to achieve tactile interactivity for human-robot interaction (HRI) in soft robotics. By combining a capacitive touch sensor with an online solid ...

Schematic showing the materials used in the sensor and the sensing array on a robotic manipulator. Figure from Multiscale-structured miniaturized 3D force sensors. Reproduced under a CC BY 4.0 licence ...

Robots are becoming increasingly capable in vision and movement, yet touch remains one of their major weaknesses. Now, researchers have developed a miniature tactile sensor that could give robots ...

Unlock the power of touch! In this deep-dive tutorial, we’re moving beyond clunky mechanical switches and harnessing the "magic" of capacitive touch. No matter if you're a beginner looking for a ...

Researchers argue that the problem that has been lurking in the margins of many papers about touch sensors lies in the robotic skin itself. Researchers at Northwestern University and Israel's Tel Aviv ...

Why thinner OLED stackups are more susceptible to EMI and noise, and the impacts for touch sensing. How multi-frequency-region parallel sensing (MFRPS) improves touch accuracy, scalability, and ...

Lexus has an interesting steering wheel button setup where there are two thumbpads on the spokes, unlabeled, that can be shifted between functions (like the shift key on your computer, not shifting ...
