Robots Receive Tactual Sensation without Detectors Owing to IR LED and Solar Cells

According to the coverage of foreign media, the research team at the University of Glasgow has developed the first electronic skin prototype that generates energy, which receives tactile feedbacks without the need of designated touch sensors. The research team at the University of Glasgow had published a research thesis in the IEEE Transactions on Robotics, which depicted how a robotic hand that is covered with a soft solar-powered skin is able to interact with other objects, without the utilization of exclusively designed and exorbitant touch sensors. First, the miniaturi...
