A Dual‐Responsive Artificial Skin for Tactile and Touchless Interfaces (Small 21/2023)

Tactile and Touchless Artificial Skins In article number 2206830, Yifan Wang and co-workers present a dual-responsive artificial skin, which reacts to both pre-contact events and tactile pressure levels. Overlooked valuable information encoded in the proximal inputs from environments can be explored. Versatile human–machine interfaces (HMIs) for tactile and touchless interactions are achieved. Moreover, the proof-of-concept application for materials classification is successfully demonstrated in an entirely touchless mode.
