Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive review of the principles, design, and application of tactile sensors, incorporating new research results. Tactile sensors may be used in the augmentation or replacement of damaged human appendages, and they are used in robots, including applications in nuclear reactors, in underwater exploration, and in space. Contributors examine characteristics (and limitations) of sensor materials, the design of tactile sensors based on the physiology of the human hand, and numerous applications of this emerging technology.
