Abstract EN
Active touch with voluntary movement on the surface of an object is important for human to obtain the local and detailed features on it.
In addition, the active touch is considered to enhance the human spatial resolution.
In order to improve dexterity performance of multifinger robotic hands, it is necessary to study an active touch method for robotic hands.
In this paper, first, we define four requirements of a tactile sensor for active touch and design a distributed tactile sensor model, which can measure a distribution of compressive deformation.
Second, we suggest a measurement process with the sensor model, a synthesis method of distributed deformations.
In the experiments, a five-finger robotic hand with tactile sensors traces on the surface of cylindrical objects and evaluates the diameters.
We confirm that the hand can obtain more information of the diameters by tracing the finger.
