The Robotics Institute at Carnegie Mellon University has developed a machine-knitted textile “skin” that can detect contact and pressure.
Over recent years, the goal in robotics has been to make robots more humane.
To make this possible, engineers have now developed a first-of-its-kind “RobotSweater” that will enable better interaction with humans. The Robotics Institute at Carnegie Mellon University has developed a machine-knitted textile “skin” that can be wrapped around the robot’s body to detect contact and pressure.
