Abstract
We propose the Finger Cot type Strain-gauges-sandwiched Rubber Artificial Skin Layer. It is a wearable sensor for measurement of the finger pressure. The thickness, lightness and excellent wearing feeling are the better features than other wearable sensors. The strain-gauges are arranged in the layer at the side of the finger in order to measure the deformation of the touching finger. Method of fabrication and results of experiment of the measurement are shown. Further more, the dynamical models of both the finger and the finger lapped by rubber are configured. Then, mechanical phenomenon are simulated in touching action of the finger by finite element method. From those results, it has been shown that the reaction force to the ball of finger can be measured by the Finger Cot type Strain-gauges-sandwiched Rubber Artificial Skin Layer.
