We believe that fast, bandwidth-efficient event-based tactile sensors like Evetac will be essential for bringing human-like manipulation capabilities to robotics. Check out for the link to the paper, design files, and software interface.

Looking forward to presenting our work on „Placing by Touching“ at IROS tomorrow. In short, we exploit tactile sensing for precise & stable object placing. It is also nominated for the Best Paper Award on Mobile Manipulation. Happening at 9:12 in room 252AB (Tactile Sensing I).
Placing by Touching: An empirical study on the importance of tactile sensing for precise object placing. Luca Lach,  @n_w_funk, Robert Haschke, Severin Lemaignan, Helge Joachim Ritter, @Jan_R_Peters & @GeorgiaChal . Website: [4/5]
