| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
For the problem of detecting undesirable small bumps and holes on a hard surface, we succeeded to find a basic idea of the tactile sensor and to verify its effectiveness experimentally. The tactile sensor is located between a user's hand and the inspection surface, and the user moves his/her hand with the sensor for scanning the entire surface for detecting small bumps and holes. While such a tactile sensor with the wide detection area must be highly sensitive, we also succeeded to formulate the principle of high sensitivity of the proposed tactile sensor.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
この触覚センサは，時間分解能の高い計測が可能であり，走査速度が大きい場合にも対応が可能と予想される．このため，自動車ボディの面歪み検査に利用することが期待される．この成果を特許出願すると共に，英語学術論文として発表済みである．
