Having the merits of chemical inertness and immunity to electromagnetic interference, light weight, small size, and softness, optical waveguides have attracted much attention in making tactile sensors recently. This paper presents a new design of waveguide using two layers of cores, one of which has an uniform width and the other has an incremental width. It is deduced and verified that the contac...
