In this paper, we present a capacitance-based sensor array for physical human-robot interaction (pHRI) applications that can measure the proximity, near-zero-force (NZF) contacts, and pressure between a robot and human body. The top segment including the electrodes is made of soft, stretchable materials, while the bottom segment consists of electrodes patterned from a thin copper film. The resulti...
