Electronic Skin: Carbon Nanofiber versus Graphene‐Based Stretchable Capacitive Touch Sensors for Artificial Electronic Skin (Adv. Sci. 2/2018)

摘要

Enabling cost-effective technologies for human–robot interactions are crucial for humanoid robotics. A major problem in robotic touch sensing performance is often cited as the lack of sensitivity at the robotic joints (e.g., fingers and elbows). In article number 1700587, Pietro Cataldi, Ilker S. Bayer, and co-workers demonstrate durable and stretchable touch sensors based on carbon nanofibers or graphene using rubber glove templates. The capacitive sensors are shown to be highly responsive under elongation.
