Stanford researchers in the Biomimetics and Dexterous Manipulation Lab have patented a low cost, high performance multi-axis capacitive tactile sensor that measures all six components of force and torque.
Stanford researchers have patented the "Wolverine," a mobile, wearable haptic device designed for simulating the grasping of rigid objects in virtual reality.
Stanford researchers have developed an ultra-sensitive resistive pressure sensor based on an elastic, microstructured conducting polymer (EMCP) thin film.
Stanford engineers have created a patented method for fabricating highly sensitive piezoresistors on vertical walls of microstructures by epitaxial growth of doped silicon.
Stanford researchers have invented a system for identifying head impacts and rejecting spurious motion events. The system has been implemented in an instrumented mouthguard which measures head kinematics on the sports field.
