Abstract: Light detection and ranging (LIDAR) sensors, employing direct time-of-flight (dToF) measurements, are crucial for precise surface localization and are increasingly integrated into compact ...

Scientists have developed a color-changing tactile sensor that lets robots visualize touch in real time, paving the way for more precise manufacturing, prosthetics, and robotic surgery.

Researchers have developed a soft robotic gripper that can inspect fruit for ripeness and harvest it without causing damage, a capability that could help reduce food waste and improve harvesting ...

This work presents a novel approach to fabricating soft capacitive tactile sensors using a surface crochet technique to embed conductive thread within crocheted textile substrates. The sensors are ...
