Claim 19:
20. A computer program product embodied in a non-transitory computer readable medium and comprising computer instructions for:
sensing a value associated with a plurality of measurement objects that are embedded in a material associated with an intermediate layer of a plurality of layers associated with a tactile sensing unit, wherein the value associated with the plurality of measurement objects is sensed by a sensor that is included a layer below the intermediate layer of the tactile sensing unit, wherein at least one of the plurality of measurement objects is located at a side boundary of the intermediate layer, wherein a top boundary associated with the intermediate layer contacts a bottom boundary associated with a top layer of the plurality of layers; and
using an output of the sensor to make a determination associated with engagement of a robotic arm end effector with an item.
