Abstract:
Provided are a flexible tactile sensor and a method for manufacturing the same. The flexible tactile sensor includes a polymer layer, a first metal layer formed over the polymer layer and a first sensor layer formed over the first metal layer, the first sensor layer comprising a strain gauge configured to change its resistance according to a first strain and a metal wire connected to the strain gauge. The flexible tactile sensor also includes a first cover layer configured to protect the first sensor layer, a second metal layer formed under the polymer layer, a second sensor layer formed under the second metal layer. The second sensor layer includes a strain gauge configured to change its resistance according to a second strain and a metal wire connected to the strain gauge of the second metal layer and a second cover layer configured to protect the second sensor layer.

Claim (Index 8):
A method for manufacturing a flexible tactile sensor, the method comprising:\n forming a first metal layer and a second metal layer on upper and lower surfaces of a polymer layer, respectively; patterning a first strain gauge on an upper surface of the first metal layer and patterning a second strain gauge on a lower surface of the second metal layer; patterning a first metal wire connected to the first strain gauge and patterning a second metal wire connected to the second strain gauge; and forming a first cover layer protecting the first strain gauge and the first metal wire and forming a second cover layer protecting the second strain gauge and the second metal wire.
