Teleoperation of humanoid robots enables the integration of the cognitive skills and domain
expertise of humans with the physical capabilities of humanoid robots. The operational …

Telexistence technology allows for highly realistic sensation of existence in remote places
without actual travel. The concept was originally proposed by the author in 1980, and its …

This study describes the creation of a new type of compact skin-like silicone-based
thermosensitive visuotactile sensor based on GelSight technology. The easy integration of …

Human life is invaluable. When dangerous or life-threatening tasks need to be completed,
robotic platforms could be ideal in replacing human operators. Such a task that we focus on …

Telecommunication and remote-controlled operations are becoming increasingly common
in our daily lives. While performing these operations, ideally users would feel as if they were …

Since human skin has tactile receptors for force, vibration, and temperature, if it can be
presented, it is considered possible to present various textures based on the theory of haptic …

In an attempt to help make humans into more efficient and effective information processors,
the engineers of mobile communication systems and devices have turned to touch as an …

This paper describes a novel tactile sensing probe based on haptic primary colors (HPCs)
and a tactile classifying system. We developed a finger-type soft tactile probe incorporating a …

Haptic primary colors correspond to temperature, vibration, and force. Previous studies
combined these three haptic primary colors to produce different types of cutaneous …

We have developed a classification method of tactile feeling using a stacked autoencoder-
based neural network on haptic primary colors. The haptic primary colors principle is a …
