A force sensing tool for disassembly operations
Discusses the design and characterization of a prototype disassembly tool. The tool utilizes three force sensing resistors (FSRs) for force feedback. FSRs were used to control the movement of the tool during disassembly operations. The tool was used to disassemble a device's snap-fit cover and batteries. The use of FSRs resulted in a low-cost, flexible disassembly tool.
