Abstract

A piezoresistive strain-gauge sensor, mounted in an array configuration, for the measurement of distributed pressures during robotic grasp applications is investigated. The prototype presented consists of a 16-element test cell connected to an electronic acquisition unit that also provides temperature compensation. The structure of the tactile sensor and its principle of operation are described.
