Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of sensors, in particular to an optical fiber grating force tactile sensor, a robot and a mechanical fingertip thereof. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of robot intelligence, the robot's force-tactile perception of external information is becoming more and more important. Robots with force-tactile information feedback can more accurately complete various fine and complex operations. Therefore, high-precision, high-reliability , The research and development of the force tactile sensor that can be integrated has been paid attention to by the scientific and technological circles. [0003] At present, it is reported that force tactile sensors are mostly designed based on electromagnetic signal components such as capacitors and strain gauges. These components have large zero point drift due to the influence of temperature and humidity, and weak electric signals are difficult to resist ele...
