Skin-On Interface Takes Touch Technology to the Next Level.
Researchers from the University of Bristol in partnership with Telecomm ParisTech and the Sorbonne University in France have developed a skin-on interface that mimics the appearance of human skin and its ability to sense.
About:- The interface is made up of layers of silicone membrane. It is,
therefore, more natural than the hard casing of phones, and can detect
gestures made by end-users.
- The artificial skin allows the device it is on to “feel” the user’s
grasp, including its pressure and location. Therefore, it can detect
interactions such as tickling, caressing, twisting and pinching.
- While artificial skin has been studied in the field of robotics, the
aim of those studies was either cosmetic or focussed on safety. This is
the first time that the uses of “realistic” artificial skins are being
considered for augmenting devices.
- This development could take touch technology to the next level for interactive devices such as phones, wearables and computers.
