Rubber artificial skin layer with flexible structure for shape estimation of micro-undulation surfaces

Abstract In this paper, we propose a wearable tactile sensor for measuring the shape of micro-undulations on a hard surface. The proposed sensor has two layers. The inner one is a thin rubber layer into which a strain gauge is embedded that is formed around a user’s finger. The outer layer is a flex...
