静電容量型6軸力覚センサの開発

抄録

We have succeeded in developing a capacitive 6-axis force sensor that can singly detect 3-axis force and 3-axis moment. The capacitive 6-axis force sensor has an advantage of being able to realize high accuracy at low cost compared with conventional sensors using strain gauges. This paper details the sensor structure, detection principle, and detection circuit, as well as the performance, such as sensitivity, cross-axis sensitivity, and linearity of the capacitive 6-axis force sensor.
