Title: Sensor Devices and Systems for Robotics
Description: The purpose of the book is to review the state of the art of different kinds of sensors, as they are developed and used in some research centers. Most of the topics of the book are treated in depth although there are some surveys and overviews with the aim of introducing new subjects to the readers. Since most of the topics treated are up to date research in sensorics, they provide a great deal of valuable information for researchers, designers and engineers. The book is organized in parts which deal with the following matters: Force and Torque Sensors, Tactile Sensors, Acoustic Sensors, Optical Sensors, Other Sensors and Applications.
