Jinghua Tang’s oral presentation at IEEE World Haptics 2017

Jinghua Tang delivered an oral presentation entitled: ‘A Comprehensive Mechanotransduction Model for Tactile Feedback based on Multi-Axial Stresses at the Fingertip-Contact Interface’ and an invited talk for the  ‘Recent Advances in Modelling Skin Mechanics and Tactical Afferent Responses Workshop’ at IEEE World Haptics 2017, held on the 6th-9th June in Munich, Germany. The research shows a comprehensive Mechanotransduction model that was developed by inputting normal and tangential force obtained from the fingertip/object interface during daily grasping activities. It is envisaged that the model could be potentially used as an input for the future development of neuro-prosthetic hand.
