Abstract
Discusses the motivations for designing a novel tactile device incorporating different sensing elements for detecting a range of information, including proximity, force/torque and tactile. The fabrication and calibration of some of the sensors, which make use of three different transducer technologies, namely strain gauges, semiconductive polymers and piezoelectric polymers, are also described
