Engineers at Columbia University have created a force-sensitive finger for robots that senses in all directions. “There has long been a gap between stand-alone tactile sensors and fully integrated tactile fingers – tactile sensing is still far from ubiquitous in robotic manipulation,” said researcher Matei Ciocarlie. “We have demonstrated a multi-curved robotic finger with accurate ...
