This paper presents a novel acoustic soft tactile (AST) skin technology operating with sound waves. In this innovative approach, the sound waves generated by a speaker travel in channels embedded in a soft membrane and get modulated due to a deformation of the channel when pressed by an external force and received by a microphone at the end of the channel. The sensor leverages regression and class...
