How does a robotic arm or a prosthetic hand learn a complex task like grasping and rotating a ball? The challenge for the ...

A new study from Tel Aviv University reveals that the greater mouse-tailed bat (Rhinopoma microphyllum) uses its long tail as ...

The study provides two important contributions, by convincingly showing that tactile acuity on the breast is poor in comparison to other body parts, and that acuity is worst in larger breasts, ...

DIGIT Pinki, the sensor created by Di and her colleagues, builds on tactile sensor designs introduced in recent years, such as the DIGIT and OmniTact sensors. To create their device, however ...

How does a robotic arm or a prosthetic hand learn a complex task like grasping and rotating a ball? Researchers address the classic 'nature versus nurture' question. The research demonstrates that the ...

We make and develop novel 3D-printed tactile sensors and hands, such as the award-winning 3D-printed tactile fingertip (Tac Tip). We write the algorithms that make the robots function. We apply ...

By restoring tactile feedback, this device helps surgeons—especially those in training—improve precision and safety in MIS ...

Researchers have developed an ‘off-the-jaw’ sensing system that restores tactile feedback in minimally invasive surgery.
