Neuroscience studies have proved that the absence of proper tactile feedback can affect
human behavior. A qualitative and quantitative growth in flexible artificial touch sensing …

Bringing tactile sensation to robotic hands will allow for more effective grasping, along with a
wide range of benefits of human-like touch. Here, we present a three-dimensional-printed …

Underwater manipulation is one of the most remarkable ongoing research subjects in
robotics. Intervention autonomous underwater vehicles (I-AUVs) not only have to cope with …

This letter presents a compliant exploration framework based on a collaborative robot
Franka Panda that builds a 3D plant stem model. The model is built for agricultural plant …

Object recognition is essential to enable robots to interact with their environment. Robots
should be capable, on one hand of recognizing previously experienced objects, and on the …

Object recognition is a prerequisite to control a soft gripper successfully grasping an
unknown object. Visual and tactile recognitions are two commonly used methods in a …

Perception is not a passive process but the result of an interaction between an organism and
the environment. This is especially clear in haptic perception that depends entirely on tactile …

Drawing inspiration from haptic exploration of objects by humans, the current work proposes
a novel framework for robotic tactile object recognition, where visual information in the form …

The humanoid robot iCub is currently equipped with an array of capacitive sensors that
provide pressure information throughout the body of the robot. Even though for some …
