Researchers detail new data in Robotics. According to news originating from Shanghai, People’s Republic of China, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, “Robots are now working more and more closely with humans outside of traditional fences in industrial scenes. Their real-time tactile interaction perception is crucial to the safety of human-robot collaboration (HRC).” Financial supporters for this research include National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC), National Key Research and Development Program of China, Science & Technology Commission of Shanghai Municipality (STCSM), Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities. Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Tongji University, “In this work, we present a customized, wearable, and modular robot skin (TacSuit), which is scalable for large-area surface coverage of robot with easily accessible multimodal sensors, including pressure, proximity, acceleration, and temperature sensors. The TacSuit is co-designed for mechanical structure and data fusion algorithm, consisting of three levels of design: sensor, cell (of multimodal sensors), and block (of multiple cells). These sensors are stored with custom-designed and 3-D printed capsules to achieve the conformity, scalability, and easy installation to the arbitrary robot surface. A multilevel event-driven data fusion algorithm enables efficient information processing for large number of tactile sensors. Furthermore, a virtual interaction force fusion method takes both the proximity and force perception information into consideration in order to achieve safety of whole interaction process before and after direct physical contacts. A humanoid robotic platform successfully realizes the TacSuit wear of 159 tactile cells.”
