The newly developed miniature six-component force/torque sensor (20mm in diameter and 16mm in height, patent pending) with full digital output has been developed for the fingertip of the new ...

The Wheatstone bridge is a ubiquitous circuit configuration that is useful in detecting small changes in resistance.

The idea for a two-dimensional force map came from one of [chris.coulson]’s classmates, an amputee who developed a single-channel pressure sensor to help him solve a painful fitting problem.
