| 研究開始時の研究の概要 |
Diseases such as COVID-19 show the vulnerability of our medical system, and the situation will only get more serious in the future due to our super-aging society. Robots are commonly seen as a possible solution, but close interaction with humans is still impossible for them due to safety concerns. We address this problem by developing an adaptive and smart skin sensor. The skin can sense both the proximity and the contact strength. It can adjust its sensing range and resolution. The skin is safer with inflated air pockets. The sensor will have Tactile AI for safety and gesture recognition.

| 研究実績の概要 |
Several issues have been identified that affect the progress of the project. Namely, the issue of the cable's robustness and the reliability of the sensor's PCB.
The issue of the robustness of the cables prevents the sensors from being used for a long time. The cables need to be repaired often. The existing PCB design of the sensor was not reliable; it results in unstable performance of the sensor. These issues need to be solved.

4: 遅れている
理由
The delay is due to the issues as listed in the summary. These issues should be solved before proceed as originally planned.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
The issues of the cable's robustness and reliability of the sensor's PCB need to be solved.
Newer and more powerful microcontroller would be a nice additional to increase the speed of the sensor.
