Tactile Gesture Recognition with Built-in Joint Sensors for Industrial Robots

arXiv:2508. 12435v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: While gesture recognition using vision or robot skins is an active research area in Human-Robot Collaboration (HRC), this paper explores deep learning methods relying solely on a robot's built-in joint sensors, eliminating the need for external sensors.

Tactile Memory with Soft Robot: Robust Object Insertion via Masked Encoding and Soft Wrist

The paper introduces TaMeSo‑bot, a soft‑wrist robotic system that uses tactile memory to perform robust object insertion tasks. It employs a Masked Tactile Trajectory Transformer (MAT³) to jointly model actions, tactile cues, force‑torque data, and proprioception, learning spatiotemporal representations through masked token prediction. Experiments on peg‑in‑hole tasks show that MAT³ outperforms baselines and adapts well to unseen pegs and conditions.
