Self-Organization of Tactile Receptive Fields: Exploring Their Textural Origin and Their Representational Properties
In our earlier work, we found that feature space induced by tactile receptive fields (TRFs) are better than that by visual receptive fields (VRFs) in texture boundary detection t...

A Sensitive Skin Based on Touch-Area-Evaluating Tactile Elements
In this paper, we propose a new tactile sensor skin system. The system consists of two components. One is a sensor element which detects a contact area in addition to a contact fo...
