The mechanical properties of a sensor strongly affect its tactile sensing capabilities. The role of morphology and stiffness on the quality of the tactile data has already been the subject of several studies, which focus mainly on static sensor designs and design methodologies. However, static desig
In this letter, we developed a piezoresistive auxetic sensor structure based on a silicone elastomer and carbon-based conductive thermoplastic elastomer fiber sensor (CTPE fiber). Liquid silicone has been used as the matrix material. In addition silicone has been mixed with silica filler to tailor t
Soft robotic sensors have been limited in their applications due to their highly nonlinear time variant behavior. Current studies are either looking into techniques to improve the mechano-electrical properties of these sensors or into modelling algorithms that account for the history of each sensor.
