Layered e-skin for Shear Sensing

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 18, 2026 · UTC

This paper presents a stacked two-layer force-sensing resistor (FSR) array designed for robotic fingertips that combines high-resolution pressure mapping with shear-force estimation. A compliant lattice elastomer spacer converts shear loading into a measurable inter-layer displacement, producing relative center-of-pressure (CoP) shifts between layers. A physics-based moment balance links inter-layer CoP displacement to shear force, while an end-to-end CNN--GRU model captures nonlinear effects from load-dependent compression and contact redistribution. This model, with both layers as input, ach
