Requirement-Driven Design of Whole-Body Social Tactile Sensing via Virtual Human-Robot Interaction
Dakarai Crowder, Ruohan Zhang, Alexis E. Block, Wenzhen Yuan
Tactile sensing for social-physical human-robot interaction (spHRI) is designed in a hardware-driven manner, where predefined sensor configurations constrain coverage, spatial resolution, and the range of recognizable gestures. We propose a requirement-driven framework that deriv…
