چکیده

Tactile receptors in the skin allow humans to sense multimodal tactile information such as the contact force, slippage, shape, position and orientation of a contacted object. Humans easily control their muscles by feeding back information from tactile receptors. Therefore, tactile sensing is a key factor in enabling robots to imitate skilled human behaviors. Precise control and dexterity in robots are due to information feedback from tactile sensors.
