A new artificial skin unveiled at CES 2026 could give robots human-like sensitivity, helping machines better understand ...

EBE sensors + motion is expanding its portfolio of capacitive input systems for industrial control concepts with the TCRC.

Using a 3D-printed material sensitive to electric fields, researchers have created a novel sensor that can accurately recognize and distinguish objects up to 10 centimeters – about four inches – away ...

KT Series capacitive touch sensitive sensors are designed to be used as machine start/stop buttons in the industrial automation, mobile and building automation industries. The sensors provide a ...

Robots have made clear advances in vision, mobility, and sound recognition, yet their ability to sense touch with any real ...

Robots are starting to flinch. New generations of electronic skin can register heat, pressure and even damaging force, then ...

Scientists have developed a low-cost, durable, highly-sensitive robotic ‘skin’ that can be added to robotic hands like a glove, enabling robots to detect information about their surroundings in a way ...

Capacitive touch sensors are entirely in the domain of DIY, requiring little more than a carefully-chosen conductive surface and a microcontroller. This led [John Phillips] to ask why not embed such ...

TL;DR: The USPTO granted Apple several patents this week. A touch interface that covers the entire device is one of the more intriguing ones. The concept would use touch sensors embedded in the ...
