Soft sensorised skins are essential for improving robotic manipulation capabilities towards that of humans. Integration of sensors into existing robotic hands is challenging due to rigidity of components, low packing density or poor sensor response. We propose a sensorised skin, based-on barometric sensing, which can be molded over a skeletal robot hand. The sensors connect air chambers embedded i...
