Scientists develop stretchable 'skin' sensor to give robots human sensation
Cornell scientists have developed a new form of stretchable "skin" sensor that uses fiber optics to provide a sense of touch. This sensor could give soft robotic systems, or anyone using AR, the ability to feel tactile sensations like humans. Scientists designed a 3D-printed, Bluetooth-equipped glove, that is powered by a lithium battery, with a sensor running along each finger.
