Two tiny ICs and a few passive components can yield a capacitive proximity sensor with excellent sensitivity and extremely fast response time. The circuit’s operation leverages the pulse-front ...

Although small-scale tactile sensors have seen tremendous progress over the past decade, ... April 12). Research in Japan shows the way toward tactile and proximity sensing in large soft robots.

“Integrating this sensor is seamless, as it is already plug-and-play compatible with popular small-scale industrial robots such as the Yaskawa MotoMini and the Mecademic Meca500,” according to Bota.
