Dataset of contact forces and positions: A robot with a capacitive forearm skin reaching in a cluttered environment

For this dataset, we used the robot Cody to reach into an artificially configured cluttered foliage environment. Cody had a force-sensitive skin across its forearm as well as a wedged shaped end effector with fabric-based tactile sensors mounted on to it. More details here.

Dataset of contact forces and positions: A robot with a stretchable resistive tactile sleeve reaching in a cluttered environment

For this dataset, we used the robot DARCI to reach into an artificially configured cluttered foliage environment. DARCI had a stretchable and flexible resistive tactile sleeve across its forearm and wrist. More details here.
