Flexible magnetic sensors have tactile hyperacuity and the ability to distinguish between normal shear forces.
Tactile perception is a primary sensing channel for both humans and robots to be conscious of the surface properties an object. Due unique functionalities mechanoreceptors in human skin, can easily distinguish materials with different characteristics (e.g., compressibility, roughness, etc.) by simply pressing sliding fingertip over samples. However, how achieve such delicate texture recognition remains open challenge due lack skin‐comparable tactile systems smart pattern algorithms. Herein,...
Robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery (RMIS) has become increasingly popular in the resection of cancers. However, lack tactile feedback clinical RMIS limits surgeon's haptic understanding tissue mechanics, making it hard to detect abnormalities (e.g., tumor) efficiently. In this letter, we propose an approach that can simultaneously localize and segment inclusions (artificial artificial via autonomous robotic palpation with a sensor. By using Bayesian optimization guided probing, tumor...
Tactile sensors of high spatial resolution can provide rich contact information in terms accurate location and force magnitude for robots. However, achieving a normally requires density tactile sensing cells (or taxels), which will inevitably lead to crowded wire connections, more data acquisition time probably crosstalk between taxels. An alternative approach improve the without introducing taxels is employing super-resolution technology. Here, we propose novel method based on sinusoidally...
We propose a deep visuo-tactile model for real-time estimation of the liquid inside deformable container in proprioceptive way. fuse two sensory modalities, i.e., raw visual inputs from RGB camera and tactile cues our specific sensor without any extra calibrations. The robotic system is well controlled adjusted based on real time. main contributions novelties work are listed as follows: 1) Explore way volume by developing an end-to-end predictive with multi-modal convolutional networks,...
Proximity sensing detects an object's presence without contact. However, research has rarely explored proximity in granular materials (GM) due to GM's lack of visual and complex properties. In this paper, we propose a granular-material-embedded autonomous system (GRAINS) based on three phenomena (fluidization, jamming, failure wedge zone). GRAINS can automatically sense buried objects beneath GM real-time manner (at least ~20 hertz) perceive them 0.5 ~ 7 centimeters ahead different granules...
The proximity perception of objects in granular materials is significant, especially for applications like minesweeping. However, due to particles' opacity and complex properties, existing sensors suffer from high costs sophisticated hardware user-cost unintuitive results. In this paper, we propose a simple yet effective sensing system underground stuff based on the haptic feedback sensor-granules interaction. We study employ unique characteristic particles -- failure wedge zone, combine...
The ultimate breaking strength of conductors always plays a vital role in the long-term safe operation transmission lines and it should be carefully considered designing conductor. While limited literature has been released regarding calculation ACCC (Aluminum Conductor Composite Core) conductors. In this study, finite element method based on real conductor samples is proposed to evaluate conductor, investigate how diameters (or sectional areas) composite core aluminum strands influence...
