Research Abstract |
An artificial skin sense module that converted information such as the contact force, the temperature, and the humidity obtained from the multi-functional tactile sensor, into the nerve pulses like the tactile receptors, was investigated. The simple tactile sensor was made with a sponge, a spiral electrode film of three terminals. Moreover, the program that generated the sequence of the impulse signal corresponding to the amplitude, the speed and the acceleration of the test signal was evaluated by using a microcomputer and a signal generator.
