Abstract
A preliminary numerical model of a three-dimensional tactile sensor based on FEA (finite element analysis) is proposed. The mapping between the resistances and the deformation of the simplified tactile sensor is established by ANSYS™, which will provide useful information to improve the design of the sensor. A decoupling algorithm based on the RBF (radical basis function) network is applied to the numerical model, and the preliminary results show that this algorithm can perform on the low-dimensional numerical model quickly.
