Hidden flaw in robotic touch sensors The team’s study unearthed a hidden flaw in conductive elastomer composites—materials widely used in flexible sensors for robotics and wearable electronics.

The sensor is lightweight, low-cost, and wireless, making it an affordable option for retrofitting existing robot hands and graspers. The human hand can sense pressure, temperature, texture, and pain.

This actually isn’t the first time we’ve seen somebody use a similar sensor to pull off low-cost gesture control, but so far, none of these projects have really taken off.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-023-38098-0 Penn State researchers have developed a low-cost, RNA-based technology to detect and measure biomarkers, which can help decode the body's physiology.

This proof-of-concept study seeks to provide warfighters with sensors that are light in weight, low in cost, small in size and easy to carry. “We’re always trying to unburden the warfighter.
