Abstract: This study shows the development of a capacitive force sensor, which cannot only detect multi-axial forces but also differentiate the applied normal and shear force due to its innovative ...

A puzzle in theoretical chemistry has been solved at TU Wien: A new computational method now makes it possible to calculate the forces between large molecules with unprecedented accuracy. Why can ...

Abstract: Engineering humanoid robot hands with the ability to dexterously grasp objects of different sizes, shapes, mate-rial properties and weights requires sophisticated tactile sensing and ...
