再现和扩展人类感官的愿望推动了传感器技术的创新。相反，人机界面研究的目标是让人们以控制论的、以人为本的方式与机器进行交互，就好像它们是自然物体一样。我们希望将这两种范式与触觉传感器结合起来，触觉传感器具有多种功能，并具有双重目的：提高机器人与物理世界交互的能力，并提高人类与虚拟世界交互的能力，以适应具有高度存在感的新兴应用。我们设计了一个名为GelForce的传感器，它在使用普通消费硬件的传统和新型桌面应用中都是一个实用的工具。通过测量表面牵引场，GelForce触觉传感器可以使用计算机视觉来表示施加到皮肤表面的力的大小和方向。这篇文章附有一个简短的录像纪录片光盘。
The desire to reproduce and expand the human senses drives innovations in sensor technology. Conversely, human-interface research aims to allow people to interact with machines as if they were natural objects in a cybernetic, human-oriented way. We wish to unite the two paradigms with a haptic sensor as versatile as the sense of touch and developed for a dual purpose: to improve the robotic capability to interact with the physical world, and to improve the human capability to interact with the virtual world for emerging applications with a heightened sense of presence. We designed a sensor, dubbed GelForce, that acts as a practical tool in both conventional and novel desktop applications using common consumer hardware. By measuring a surface traction field, the GelForce tactile sensor can represent the magnitude and direction of force applied to the skin's surface using computer vision.
