Tactile sensing, which relies on direct physical contact, is critical for human perception and underpins applications in computer vision, robotics, and multimodal learning. Because tactile data is often scarce and costly to acquire,…
Surface wettability is a critical design parameter for biomedical devices, coatings, and textiles. Contact angle measurements quantify liquid-surface interactions, which depend strongly on liquid formulation. Herein, we present the Robotic…
High-density afferents in the human hand have long been regarded as essential for human grasping and manipulation abilities. In contrast, robotic tactile sensors are typically used to provide low-density contact data, such as…
Deep learning combined with high-resolution tactile sensing could lead to highly capable dexterous robots. However, progress is slow because of the specialist equipment and expertise. The DIGIT tactile sensor offers low-cost entry to…
As social infrastructures rapidly age, it is crucial to create a digital SOC (Social Overhead Capital) maintenance system for preventive maintenance. Using IoT sensors installed on the structures, abnormal signals produced by the structures…
We present BadgeX, a novel system integrating lightweight wearable IoT devices (smart badges/smartphones) with Large Language Models (LLMs) to enable real-time collaborative learning analytics. The system captures multimodal sensor data…
In this paper, we explore how performers' embodied interactions with a Neural Audio Synthesis model allow the exploration of the latent space of such a model, mediated through movements sensed by e-textiles. We provide background and…
Building multisensory AI systems that learn from multiple sensory inputs such as text, speech, video, real-world sensors, wearable devices, and medical data holds great promise for impact in many scientific areas with practical benefits,…
Wearable medical technology has become increasingly popular in recent years. One function of wearable health devices is stress detection, which relies on sensor inputs to determine the mental state of patients. This continuous, real-time…
The lack of haptically aware upper-limb prostheses forces amputees to rely largely on visual cues to complete activities of daily living. In contrast, able-bodied individuals inherently rely on conscious haptic perception and automatic…
We investigate how vibrotactile wrist feedback can enhance spatial guidance for handheld tool movement in optical see-through augmented reality (AR). While AR overlays are widely used to support surgical tasks, visual occlusion, lighting…

Recently an optical amplification process called the plasmon injection scheme was introduced as an effective solution to overcoming losses in metamaterials. Implementations with near-field imaging applications have indicated substantial…
The acoustic response of an object can reveal a lot about its global state, for example its material properties or the extrinsic contacts it is making with the world. In this work, we build an active acoustic sensing gripper equipped with…
Tactile sensing has seen a rapid adoption with the advent of vision-based tactile sensors. Vision-based tactile sensors provide high resolution, compact and inexpensive data to perform precise in-hand manipulation and human-robot…
