Abstract

The requirement for a low cost, lightweight and robust force sensor for dextrous artificial hands or robot manipulators has produced a variety of different solutions. The authors describe one sensor, based on the transverse Hall effect. The device's properties of force detection, spatial resolution, object slip detection and a method for reducing the sensor's cross sensitivity to other influences are described.
