Abstract

See full text

An optical tactile sensor has a touch pad and a CCD camera for imaging behavior of the touch pad. A CPU processes image information from the CCD camera, extracts information on the size, shape, and center of gravity of a contact region, and extracts information on the size of a fixation region. The CPU obtains a normal force from the size of the contact region, obtains a tangential force from the shape of the contact region and the center of gravity of the contact region, and obtains a friction coefficient from the ratio of the size of the fixation region to the size of the contact region.
