Team develops embodied robotic arm EmArm with human-like tactile sensing

A team at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology developed the embodied robotic arm EmArm, embedding a soft optical tactile skin into a rigid skeleton to achieve whole-arm tactile sensing and adaptive manipulation, with tactile sensing fidelity reaching 97.9% under five environmental disturbances. Its tactile skin covers over 71,000 square millimeters with a spatial resolution of 0.085 millimeters, can recognize five touch behaviors and provide emotional feedback, with recognition accuracy up to 99.8%. The research was published in Nature Sensors.
