This article deals with the problem of the recognition of human hand touch by a robot
equipped with large area tactile sensors covering its body. This problem is relevant in the …

This paper deals with the problem of using the tactile feedback generated by a robotic skin
for discriminating a human hand touch from a generic contact. Humans understand …

There are a wide range of features that tactile contact provides, each with different aspects of
information that can be used for object grasping, manipulation, and perception. In this paper …

Successful grasping with multi-fingered prosthetic or robotic hands remains a challenge to
be solved for the effective use of these hands in unstructured environments. To this end …

This paper describes the design of a multi-camera optical tactile sensor that provides
information about the contact force distribution applied to its soft surface. This information is …

Skin-like tactile sensors provide robots with rich feedback related to the force distribution
applied to their soft surface. The complexity of interpreting raw tactile information has driven …

In the era of social distancing, humans tend to interact more with digital edges/devices and
robotic avatar. Users mostly interact with cyber-physical systems through audiovisual …

Tactile sensing is the current challenge in robotics and object manipulation by machines.
The robot's agile interaction with the environment requires pressure sensors to detect not …

Tactile sensing arrays for robotic applications become more and more popular these days.
This allows us to equip robots with sensing abilities similar to those of our human skin. This …

Distributed tactile sensors on multi-fingered hands can provide high-dimensional
information for grasping objects, but it is not clear how to optimally process such abundant …
