Artificial tactile sensors for surface texture detection - analytical and numerical investigations
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2017-02-07)
Natural vibrissae fulfill a lot of functions. Next to object distance detection and object shape recognition, the surface texture can be determined. Inspired by the natural process of surface texture detection, the goal ...
Artificial tactile sensors for surface texture detection-finite element models and numerical treatment
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2017-02-07)
The biological example of vibrissa-type sensors in the animal realm is attributed with impressive sensing capabilities. A recently discovered ability is the surface discrimination task. Preceding research on the topic ...
Non-linear beam theory in context of bio-inspired sensing of flows
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2017-03-31)
The thesis at hand is part of a research project that attempts to study and develop
vibrissa inspired tactile sensors for object and fluid flow detection. The main focus of the thesis
is on the development of a model ...
