  • Abstract
    An embedded signal processing system that uses a low number of sensors and cascaded neural networks to provide tactile feedback for a novel flexible digit for clinical applications is described. The design has been implemented as an FPGA-based application-specific digital signal processing circuit that computes real-time tactile feedback with clinically significant accuracy.
