Smart E-skins for Life-like Soft Robot Perception
Nature, through millennia of evolution, has endowed living organisms with unmatched sensory adaptability. As robotics weave more deeply into the fabric of human society, a compelling challenge emerges: mimicking the sensory intelligence intrinsic to these life forms. The intricate synergy between the organism’s skin and brain, delivering unrivalled sensory insight and data interpretation, epitomises a domain in robotics still uncharted. Cultivating such perceptive sense in robots is crucial; it heralds a future with enhanced safety and adaptability in human-robot interactions, revealing new horizons for innovative applications. SELECT aims to bridge this perception gap in soft robotics – a…
