$45.00

Webster, John G.

Published by John Wiley & Sons, 1988

Hardcover. Good condition with boards slightly cocked and with slight wear. Missing dust jacket.

A comprehensive review of the principles, design, and application of tactile sensors, incorporating new research results. Tactile sensors may be used in the augmentation or replacement of damaged human appendages, and they are used in robots, including applications in nuclear reactors, in underwater exploration, and in space. Contributors examine characteristics (and limitations) of sensor materials, the design of tactile sensors based on the physiology of the human hand, and numerous applications of this emerging technology.
