Researchers have created a revolutionary robotic skin that brings machines closer to human-like touch. Made from a flexible, low-cost gel material, this skin transforms the entire surface of a robotic ...

Researchers in Japan have developed the first artificial-skin patch that does not affect the touch sensitivity of the real skin beneath it. The new ultrathin sensor, which is made from multilayers of ...

Using their Mosquito fabrication method, the researchers created a fan-out pattern of multiple thin light paths inside a thin sheet of PDMS. This created four optical channels that could be used for ...

ARTIFICIAL skin embedded with optical sensors could help robots develop a more human touch. Existing sensors, such as those based on simple pressure switches and motor resistance, are limited in their ...
