BeBop’s Humanoid Fabric-Based Robo-Finger is Far Superior to a Human Finger
Exceeding Human Abilities for Spatial Resolution & Sensitivity
Features 80 Sensors on 2mm Pitch with Each Sensor Measuring 4 grams to 50 kg (.14 oz to 110 lb) at 80db Response Rate
BeBop Sensors,, the world leader in smart fabric sensor technologies, announced today the availability of the RoboSkin Robo-Finger humanoid robotic finger. The BeBop Sensors Robo-Finger Evaluation System is a fabric-based sensor system that offers spatial resolution and sensitivity that far exceeds human abilities for a true partnership between humans and their robot helpers. The RoboSkin finger’s 80 sensors are located within 2mm of each other, with each sensor featuring a greater than 80dB response rate and measuring 4 grams to 50 kg (.14 oz to 110 lb) for data far superior to the capability of a human finger. Since the Robo-Finger is based on BeBop’s fabric sensing technology, the dimensions and behavior are highly customizable by Bebop, much like a tailor fitting a suit.

The Missing Component to Make Robots More Human – the Sense of Touch
Advances in robotics, such as vision and language, are missing a key element – the sense of touch, essential for practical human/robot interaction. As robots are quickly becoming part of our world, they need to interact and learn by sense of touch and feel. Flexible, reliable, and highly proprietary, BeBop Sensors’ RoboSkin provides this essential touch factor, with millions of sensors in daily use throughout the world and over 33 U.S. and international patents.
Availability
The RoboSkin Robo-Finger Sensor Evaluation System is available immediately to qualified customers. The evaluation system comes with the BeBop Sensors’ Chrome app that supports recording of all data, the ability to apply signal processing, full 2D and 3D visualization, as well as streaming raw or processed data to a Web Socket port. Customized configurations are available.
BeBop Sensors’ CEO Francois Jeanneau said, “We can give any part of a robot tactile response. The finger was the most challenging, so we started there. We are seeking partners, researchers, and funders to advance the uses of fabric sensing.”
