Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/174164
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The objective of the present invention is to provide a tactile sensor which has a simple construction and with which it is possible to detect a shear force, and a tactile sensor unit constituting said tactile sensor. The present invention provides a tactile sensor unit 100A which includes: a plurality of pressure-sensitive elements 200 including a first substrate 10 having a first electrode 1, a second electrode 3 disposed facing the first electrode, and a dielectric 2 disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode; and an external force acting portion 300 disposed across the top of a plurality of the pressure-sensitive elements; wherein the application of a shear force to the external force acting portion causes an inter-electrode electrostatic capacitance to change in at least a portion of the pressure-sensitive elements. The present invention also provides a tactile sensor including a plurality of the sensor units.
