Abstract

The invention provides an electronic skin, a robot and a tactile generation method of the electronic skin.The tactile generation method comprises the steps of receivinga first voltage signal output bya processing unit through a sensing unit, changing the capacitance value of the robot when the robot senses that the robot is touched by an external electric conductor, after converting the first voltage signal into the second voltage signal,outputting the second voltage signal to the processing unit,when the fact that the second voltage signal is greater than a preset threshold value is judged,outputting a position signal of a touch point to a main control unit bythe processing unit, andoutputtinga corresponding control signal by the main control unit to control the robot to work. The sensing unit and the processing unit are arranged on a flexible circuit board.According to the electronic skin, the robot and the tactile generation method of the electronic skin, the flexible circuit board is used as a base material, the flexible circuit board is correspondingly bended, winded or folded according to aform of the shell surface of the robot, attaching of the electronic skin to the shellsurface of the robot body without the influence of the form of the robot is achieved, and processing is easy.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electronic skin, and in particular relates to an electronic skin, a robot and a tactile generation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Electronic skin is a technology that allows robots to have a sense of touch. It has a simple structure and can be attached to the surface of the robot like clothes, so that the robot can perceive the position information of the touched point. However, existing e-skins cannot bend and therefore cannot adhere to robots with irregularly shaped surfaces (for example, those with many raised or depressed areas). [0003] Therefore, the existing electronic skin has the problem that it cannot be bent, so that it cannot be attached to the irregularly shaped robot body on the surface of the shell. Contents of the invention [0004] In view of this, the embodiment of the present invention provides an electronic skin, a robot and a method for generating tactile sensation ...
