Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of tactile sensors, and more particularly relates to a neuromimetic tactile sensor based on 4D printing. Background technique [0002] The sense of touch usually refers to the general term for mechanical stimuli such as sliding, contact, and pressure. Most animal tactile sensors are all over the body. Human skin is a kind of tactile sensor. Humans can feel humidity, temperature, pain and other sensations by relying on nerve endings. Inspired by this, people invented the tactile sensor, which is a device or device that can sense the measured pressure and convert it into a usable output signal according to certain rules. Tactile sensors are usually composed of sensitive elements and conversion elements. The sensitive element is a part that can directly contact the measured pressure, and the conversion element can convert the measured pressure that touches the sensitive element into an electrical signal suitable for tr...
