Researchers unveil SoTa low-cost tactile skin for hands
Original: Researchers present SoTa, a low-cost capacitive tactile skin that provides full-hand coverage on humans and robots. Sour
Researchers have presented SoTa, a low-cost capacitive tactile skin that can cover an entire human or robot hand, providing full-hand touch sensing. The work is described in a paper on arXiv in the robotics category. Affordable, full-coverage tactile sensing is seen as a step toward more dexterous robots and better wearable or prosthetic devices, which is drawing attention from the robotics community.
Why now: Low-cost full-hand tactile sensing is a notable advance for robotics and prosthetics, drawing interest from researchers and builders.
