Robotic Physical Comparison of Biologically Motivated and Counterfactual Sensory Arrangements using Biomimetic Skin
Akihiro Miki, Shun Hasegawa, Yoshimoto Ribayashi +3
Human skin contains diverse mechanoreceptors, including Merkel cells and Pacinian corpuscles, each localized in specific regions. Although their spatial organization is known to be…
Design of a Biomimetic Joint-Covering Skin with Tissue-Like Structure to Enhance Proprioception in a Musculoskeletal Humanoid
Akihiro Miki, Shun Hasegawa, Yoshimoto Ribayashi +2
Proprioception in musculoskeletal humanoids is typically estimated primarily from muscle sensing, while the role of cutaneous deformation around joints remains insufficiently explo…
Exploring the proprioceptive potential of joint receptors using a biomimetic robotic joint
Akihiro Miki, Shun Hasegawa, Sota Yuzaki +4
In neuroscience, joint receptors have traditionally been viewed as limit detectors, providing positional information only at extreme joint angles, while muscle spindles are conside…
