摘要: In this paper, we introduce a soft and stretchable robot skin. There are two novel technologies. One is the "cell-bridge system"; communication system that consists of dimensional areas called "cells" signal transmission devices "bridges". The other "nonlinear tactile element"; sensor element has several-centimeter-square sensing area acquires contact in addition to force. parameters obtained from capacitances structure. elements also utilized as cells, bridges measure capacitances. Using materials, can develop large-area, soft, skin without long wires. array structure, position be estimated with finer resolution than size by calculating spatial centroid measured forces.
