Explore: Tactile Sensors

A tactile sensor is a device that measures information arising from physical interaction with its environment. Tactile sensors are generally modeled after

tactile sensors that measure forces exerted by the user on the interface. The word haptic, from the Ancient Greek: ἁπτικός (haptikos), means "tactile

frequently a computer processor. Sensors are used in everyday objects such as touch-sensitive elevator buttons (tactile sensor) and lamps which dim or brighten

the human hand. In this case tactile sensors function similarly to mechanoreceptors in a human hand to differentiate tactile stimuli. The somatosensory
