June 12 (UPI) --Researchers have developed a robotic skin that can give robots a similar feeling to human touch. Researchers from the University of Cambridge and University College London have ...

Scientists have developed a new type of electronic "skin" that could give robots the ability to "feel" different tactile sensations like pokes, prods and temperature changes — and even the feeling of ...

Researchers have created a revolutionary robotic skin that brings machines closer to human-like touch. Made from a flexible, low-cost gel material, this skin transforms the entire surface of a robotic ...

With full freedom of motion, new device can generate a variety of sensations, including pulling, stretching, sliding, vibrations, pressure and twisting. When it comes to haptic feedback, most ...

In the middle of the night, when stumbling into the kitchen for a glass of water, I rely on touch. Even in the dark, my fingers can feel the handrails—alerting me to a flight of stairs—the walls, the ...

Most haptic devices only deliver feedback as simple vibrations. New device applies dynamic forces in any direction to simulate a more realistic sense of touch. Small, lightweight device can enhance ...
