A flexible electronic skin stacks carbon nanotube layers to sense touch position and pressure simultaneously, performing classification through its physical structure rather than external processors. ...

The sensor continuously sends out infrared light and measures how much of that light is reflected. When a reflective object is within its set detection range, it returns a low signal. The Arduino ...

A research team led by Massachusetts University has integrated a touch sensor with a memristor for a device that only only processes data around pixels that contain a signal while ignoring irrelevant ...

TouchNetix is launching its AX24A touch controller, for combined touch and force sensing. Part of the aXiom portfolio, it supports button features as well as force sensing behind conductive surfaces.

Researchers argue that the problem that has been lurking in the margins of many papers about touch sensors lies in the robotic skin itself. Researchers at Northwestern University and Israel's Tel Aviv ...

Chris Bruce has worked in the automotive industry since 2011 and has written thousands of stories about cars, motorsports, and motorcycles in that time. He has written for Autoblog, Autoviva, CarFax, ...

Researchers at China’s Tsinghua University’s Shenzhen International Graduate School have developed a next-generation tactile sensor called SuperTac. The project involved collaboration with multiple ...

Robots are getting better at seeing, hearing, and moving, but touch has always been the missing piece. At CES 2026, Ensuring Technology showcased a new kind of artificial skin that could finally give ...
