Estimating object hardness with a GelSight touch sensor

Estimating object hardness with a GelSight touch sensor

Hardness sensing is a valuable capability for a robot touch sensor. We describe a novel method of hardness sensing that does not require accurate control of contact conditions. A GelSight sensor is a tactile sensor that provides high resolution tactile images, which enables a robot to infer object p...
