Sensory Systems for Robotic Applications (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781849199483)

Sensory systems comprising of various sensing modalities are fundamental to robotics. They provide information about the state of the environment and of the robotic systems, which forms the basis for control, decision-making, and interaction. Thanks to advances in sensing and computer vision technologies, robots have come a long way and can be found today in healthcare, medicine and the industry. In order to mimic and interact with humans and their surrounding environments, researchers have been looking at providing them with senses such as the ability to see, smell, hear and perceive touch.

Topics covered in this edited book include various types of sensors used in robotics, sensing schemes (e-skin, tactile skin, e-nose, neuromorphic vision and touch), sensing technologies and their applications including robotics, prosthetics, wearables and healthcare.
