Knowing the gripping force being applied to an object is important for improving the quality of the grip, as well as preventing surface damage or breakage of fragile objects. In the case of soft grippers, however, an attaching or embedding of force/pressure sensors can compromise their adaptability
Soft wearable robotic gloves based on tendon-sheath mechanism are widely developed for assisting people with a loss of hand mobility. For these robots, knowing the fingertip forces applied to deformable objects is crucial in successfully grasping them without causing excessive deformations. Existing
