STATE OF ARTS AND DEVELOPMENT TRENDS TOWARD APPLICATION-ORIENTED FORCE/TORQUE SENSORS

Abstract

The state of the arts and development trends toward force/torque sensors are introduced in view of robotics, service robot and intelligent machines. And it was pointed out that the main trends toward force sensor technology is minimized and integrated by new materials and techniques. Nowadays, many new theories and methods , such as artificial intelligence and data fusion, are widely used in sensor signal processing for more kinds of information acquisation and widespread application demands.
