Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Novel Tactile Force Probe for Tissue Stiffness ClassificationBehafarid Darvish, Siamak Najarian, Elham Shirzad, Roozbeh KhodambashiIn this study, we have proposed a new type of tactile sensor that is capable of detecting the stiffness of soft objects. The sensor consists of a brass cylinder with an axial bore. An iron core can easily move inside the bore. Three peripheral bobbins were machined in the cylinder around which three coils have been wound. One of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,286 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRobot Control Using Natural Instructions Via Visual and Tactile SensationsTakuya Ikai, Shota Kamiya, Masahiro OhkaStress-free interaction between humans and robots is necessary to support humans in daily life. In order to achieve this, we anticipate the development of new robots equipped with tactile and vision sensors for receiving human instructions. In this article, we focus on spontaneous movements that do not require training, such as pointing and force adjustment and that are suitable for … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 12, Issue 5 · 27 May 2016 · 7,586 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Teletaction Control System for Detection of Human Pulse Wave with Applications in TeleoperationsJavad Dargahi, Saeed Sokhanvar, Siamak Najarian, Farhad Tabatabai GhomsheThe design of a smart medical tool that can detect the human pulse and transfer its data to a remote location is presented. The resulting control system can be used to detect the pulse wave of human obtained from the wrist area. Fabrication of the tactile sensor and its calibration procedure are discussed as well. Additionally, the design of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,919 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFabrication and Testing of a Medical Surgical Instrument Capable of Detecting Simulated Embedded LumpsJavad Dargahi, Siamak Najarian, Reza Ramezanifard, Farhad Tabatabai GhomsheA novel endoscopic grasper is being fabricated and tested. This grasper can be used in detecting lumps or tumors in biological tissues. The detailed fabrication process of the tactile sensor has been discussed. Custom-made sensors were integrated with the jaws of the endoscopic grasper and objects with known tactile features were tested by the designed grasper. Different experiments were performed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,999 accessesView PDFCite
