About this eBook

Tactile Robotics structures and unifies the information processing of tactile data—not only for extracting object property but also for controller computation. This book systematically introduces tactile sensors, perception, and control, providing readers with no prior background with a better sense and knowledge of robotics and machine learning and helping users understand the concept of tactile robots and their various applications for use in real-world scenarios. - Covers basic concepts in robotics and machine learning - Includes essential knowledge for robotic manipulation tasks when tactile information is required - Employs numerous applications to illustrate how tactile robotics can be used in real robotic manipulation tasks - Defines how to structure the knowledge that can be extracted from raw tactile data
