Theoretical and experimental investigations of multiple contact points between a biologically inspired tactile sensor and various objects
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2021-09-15)
The somatosensory system of mammals includes sensory hairs (vibrissae) for tactile perception
during near field exploration. Interacting with the environment, the tactile hair transfers
mechanical stimuli to the hair ...
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 ...
