Advanced Tactile Sensor for Humanoid Robots | AIDIN ROBOTICS
The AIDIN ROBOTICS Tactile Sensor (ATT) is a cutting-edge module designed to equip humanoid robots with a genuine “sense of touch.” Mounted typically on the hand of a humanoid robot, the ATT sensor enables the robot to perceive where contact occurs and how force is distributed across its surface—making object handling far more precise and intuitive.
Key Capabilities
- The sensor uses next-generation capacitive sensing technology to detect changes in capacitance when contact is made. This allows for high sensitivity and responsiveness.
- It hosts multiple high-resolution sensing cells embedded within the structure. These cells detect both the position of contact (i.e., where something touches) and the force applied (i.e., how hard it is being touched).
- Designed for integration in robotic hands, it brings tactile feedback into manipulation tasks, letting a robot handle objects of varied shapes and textures with greater dexterity and safety.
- With this sensor, robots can perceive more than just contact/no-contact—they can sense how contact pressure is distributed across their palm or fingers, enabling more nuanced grip adjustment and more human-like interaction.
Why It Matters
In robotic manipulation and humanoid-robot design, tactile sensing is often a missing key to dexterity. Vision alone cannot reliably determine object texture, slip, subtle contact force, or the tactile nuance of a handshake or an awkward grasp. By integrating the ATT sensor, AIDIN ROBOTICS addresses this gap—giving the robot the ability to feel the world, not just see it. This opens up improved performance in tasks such as:
- Grasping delicate objects (which require sensitive force control to avoid damage).
- Handling items of irregular shape or uncertain texture.
- Switching between different manipulations modes (pinch, tripod, full-hand grasp) seamlessly.
- Safely interacting with humans, where touch feedback helps avoid excessive force or damage.
