Dexterous Robotics

Tactile Sensing for Human Dexterous Manipulation Robots

Research · Coming Soon

Overview

An ongoing robotics research project developing tactile sensing systems for dexterous manipulation robots. Investigating how touch-based sensing helps robots interpret physical contact, improve manipulation capabilities, and enable more natural human-robot interaction.
