Keio Robotic Skin : DigInfo
DigInfo - http://movie.diginfo.tv - By using the surface ridges of skin as model, The Biorobotics Laboratory at Keio University have developed Robotic Skin which can imitate the sense of touch. The team is currently researching how to integrate this with their robotic hand and tactile display systems, which could in the future be used to transmit and replicate tactile information using a robot as an intermediary. The Robot Skin can also be used to recognize the strength needed to grip an object and adjusts its grip automatically. Future uses include working with hazardous materials, on unmanned flights or in extreme conditions.
