OPENTECHNICAL PUBLICATION OT-2026-000002413 Learning physical features from tactile robotic exploration Published: 2026-09-15T19:12:49.403634Z Permanent URL: https://opentechnical.org/p/OT-2026-000002413 Categories: Robotics & Automation > Robot Architectures ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ABSTRACT Physical features of an object from tactile robotic exploration, including by manipulation of the object with an effector having a tactile sensor that provides measurements representative of physical interaction of the effector and the object. This exploration may include performing a predetermined set of manipulations of the object using the effector. Measurements made during the manipulations are used to form a data representation of physical characteristics of the object, and this data representation is used to control further motion of the object. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ OpenTechnical publication OT-2026-000002413 Published 2026-09-15T19:12:49.403634Z https://opentechnical.org/p/OT-2026-000002413
