[INP5-3(Invited)] Electromechanical Impedance Tomography for Soft Tactile Sensor

*Shunsuke Yoshimoto1 (1. The University of Tokyo (Japan))

Keywords:Tactile Imaging, Tomography, Pressure Distribution, Touch Sensing, Haptics

This study introduces a tactile sensing technology based on a tomographic approach with conductors for imaging of pressure distribution. The proposed technology enabled designing the soft tactile sensor, characterized by high positional accuracy, adjustable sensitivity and range, and a relatively simple fabrication process.
