Groundbreaking technology often enters the market at a premium before scaling Touchsensitive eskin could soon be commonplace in robotics
News Source : TechRadar
News Summary
- Touchlab's e-skin measures pressure, force and direction through a material that’s thinner than human skin.
- E-skin technology exists, but deployment is a challenge.
- Touchlab is addressing some of these concerns with off-the-shelf components that already exist for established platforms, using bespoke engineering only where necessary.
- We envision full "toe-to-toe" digitizing of every commercial robot, powered by specialized computing and software that mirrors the human somatosensory system.
