Figure 1. Schematic of the flexible tactile sensor. (A) Concept of the tactile sensor. Curved piezoresistive cantilevers in a cross-shaped configuration embedded in an elastomer for normal stress and shear stress sensing; (B) Deformation of cantilevers of the tactile sensor under shear stress; (C) Deformation of cantilevers under normal stress. PI: Polyimide.
