Abstract:
A flexible tactile sensor apparatus is provided. The flexible tactile sensor apparatus may obtain information about an applied force, using a resistance between an upper nano wire array of an upper plate and a lower nano wire array of a lower plate, which may be changed based on a distance, between the upper nano wire array and the lower nano wire array, adjusted in proportion to the force.
Abstract:
A mobile device method for certifying a mobile device includes: generating first fixed pattern noise (FPN) information based on column FPN of an image sensor included in the mobile device; and controlling the mobile device to perform a certification by using the first FPN information.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for measuring a tactile information, using a material having variable pressure dependent properties is disclosed. The apparatus for measuring the tactile information may include a plurality of pressure measurement units to measure a magnitude of an external pressure using a material having variable properties, and a tactile information measurement unit to measure a three-dimensional (3D) tactile information based on the external pressure using a location of the plurality of pressure measurement units and a pressure measured by the plurality of pressure measurement units.
Abstract:
An interface controlling apparatus and method may generate content control information by analyzing force input information received from at least one force sensor, and may control content based on the content control information.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for controlling a robot may scale a motion of a surgical robot based on a type of object gripped by the surgical robot. In the robot controlling method, by scaling the motion of the surgical robot based on the type of object gripped by the surgical robot, the surgical robot may automatically perform the motion on objects using an optimized force although a user does not control a force minutely based on the type of object gripped by the surgical robot.
Abstract:
