Research questionHow can vision-based tactile sensing infer material compliance despite changes in object geometry?Force-only tactile estimates can be distorted by geometry, while deformation alone may not reliably quantify material compliance. The challenge is to infer material response from tactile observations when contact conditions vary.

Latest papersRecent research connected to this question, newest first.Vision-Based Tactile Sensing for the Perception of the Object's Compliance and HardnessThe source studies tactile image sequences, inferred time-varying contact forces, and deformation represented by depth maps. Evidence covers hardness samples from 10 HA to 80 HA, abnormal fruit detection, and soft-matter scenarios; reported results are limited to these settings.research paper · Sep 3, 2026
