Abstract :
Sensors for robots can be categorized as internal and external sensors. The author considers external sensors which gather information on the environment of the robot and the workpieces to be manipulated. An overview of some sensor types applicable in robot systems is presented. Imaging systems based on optical, acoustic and force signals, respectively, are described
