The gel-based material contains a uniform conductive layer that changes its electrical pathways in response to different stimuli such as pokes, burns, or cuts. This enables the material to simplify ...

Scientists unveil a low-cost, gelatin-based robotic skin that senses touch, heat, and cuts. The skin could give robots and prosthetics a lifelike sense of feel using fewer components.

SUTD researchers 3D print biodegradable conductive electronics using direct ink writing and cellulose acetate dissolved in acetone.

In a giant leap towards humanizing machines, scientists have developed an innovative electric skin that allows robots to ...

A team of scientists might have been able to give robots the chance to ‘feel’ sensations and external stimuli. This is ...
