Human skin is a remarkable organ. It consists of an integrated, stretchable network of
sensors that relay information about tactile and thermal stimuli to the brain, allowing us to …

Human skin can sense subtle changes of both normal and shear forces (ie, self-decoupled)
and perceive stimuli with finer resolution than the average spacing between …

During the last decades, smart tactile sensing systems based on different sensing
techniques have been developed due to their high potential in industry and biomedical …

Smart garments for monitoring physiological and biomechanical signals of the human body
are key sensors for personalized healthcare. However, they typically require bulky battery …

Starting from human¿ sense of touch,¿ this paper reviews the state of tactile sensing in
robotics. The physiology, coding, and transferring tactile data and perceptual importance of …

A wide variety of tactile (touch) sensors exist today for robotics and related applications.
They make use of various transduction methods, smart materials and engineered structures …

In the past years, scientists have shown that development of a power suit is no longer a
