Humans can perceive our complex world through multi-sensory fusion. Under limited visual conditions, people can sense a variety of tactile signals to identify objects accurately and rapidly. However, replicating this unique capability in robots remains a significant challenge. Here, we present a new form of ultralight multifunctional tactile nano-layered carbon aerogel sensor that provides pressure, temperature, material recognition and 3D location capabilities, which is combined with multimodal supervised learning algorithms for object recognition. The sensor exhibits human-like pressure (0.04-100 kPa) and temperature (21.5-66.2 °C) detection, millisecond response times (11 ms), a pressure sensitivity of 92.22 kPa and triboelectric durability of over 6000 cycles. The devised algorithm has universality and can accommodate a range of application scenarios. The tactile system can identify common foods in a kitchen scene with 94.63% accuracy and explore the topographic and geomorphic features of a Mars scene with 100% accuracy. This sensing approach empowers robots with versatile tactile perception to advance future society toward heightened sensing, recognition and intelligence.
人类可以通过多感官融合来感知我们这个复杂的世界。在有限的视觉条件下,人们能够感知各种触觉信号,从而准确、快速地识别物体。然而,在机器人中复制这种独特能力仍然是一项重大挑战。在此,我们展示了一种新型的超轻型多功能触觉纳米层状碳气凝胶传感器,它具备压力、温度、材料识别和三维定位能力,并与用于物体识别的多模态监督学习算法相结合。该传感器具有类似人类的压力(0.04 - 100千帕)和温度(21.5 - 66.2摄氏度)检测能力、毫秒级响应时间(11毫秒)、92.22千帕的压力灵敏度以及超过6000次循环的摩擦电耐久性。所设计的算法具有通用性,可适应一系列应用场景。该触觉系统在厨房场景中识别常见食物的准确率为94.63%,在火星场景中探索地形地貌特征的准确率为100%。这种传感方法赋予机器人通用的触觉感知能力,推动未来社会向更高的传感、识别和智能水平发展。
