A new artificial skin developed at Caltech can now give robots the ability to sense temperature, pressure, and even toxic chemicals through a simple touch. It aims to give humans more precise control over robots while also protecting the humans from potential hazards.
The multimodal robotic-sensing platform, dubbed M-Bot, was developed in the lab of Wei Gao, Caltech's assistant professor of medical engineering, investigator with Heritage Medical Research Institute, and Ronald and JoAnne Willens Scholar.
