Abstract
The development of a tactile sensing system for an industrial robot gripper using a commercial force transducer is described. The hardware and software aspects of the system design are outlines and pertinent design details of the proposed finger are given. Performance evaluation tests were conducted on the prototype system fabricated in the laboratory. These tests results are analyzed to show how the proposed system can be used as a versatile tactile sensor to perform a variety of gripping tasks
