Embedded optical sensors could make robotic hands more dexterous
Pittsburgh PA (SPX) Oct 01, 2015 - Optical sensors may be uniquely suited for use in robotic hands, according to Carnegie Mellon University researchers who have developed a three-fingered soft robotic hand with multiple embedded fiber optic sensors. They also have created a new type of stretchable optical sensor. By using fiber optics, the researchers were able to embed 14 strain sensors into each of the fingers in the robo ... more
