Interactive companion robot with nanowire-based electronic skin

互动伴侣机器人与基于电子皮肤。本项目旨在设计一种具有电子皮肤的交互式陪伴机器人，它可以通过触摸与人交流，并促进他们的心理发展。交互式陪伴机器人可以改善沟通障碍者的社会生活质量，并帮助老年人。虽然触摸在人类交流中非常重要，但大多数伴侣机器人缺乏触觉感知，这使人机交互退化。预期的结果是一个可触摸的机器人，对自闭症儿童的发展和老年人的心理益处。

Interactive companion robot with nanowire-based electronic skin. This project aims to design an interactive companion robot with electronic skin which can communicate with people by touch and enhance their psychological development. Interactive companion robots can improve the social life quality of people with communication disorders and help elderly people. Although touch is extremely important in human communication, most companion robots lack haptic sensing, which degenerates the human-robot interaction. The anticipated outcome is a touchable robot with developmental benefits for autistic children and psychological benefits for elderly people.
