Electronic-skin prototypes are stretchy, thin films that can sense temperature, pressure and even monitor blood oxygen or alcohol levels. But most of these devices are missing a key feature... Read more
Most robots achieve grasping and tactile sensing through motorized means, which can be excessively bulky and rigid. A Cornell University group has devised a way for a soft robot to feel its... Read more
Soft electronics are changing the way robots can touch. EPFL Scientists have developed a new soft robotic gripper — made out of rubber and stretchable electrodes — that can bend... Read more
