Abstract
At the fields of robotics and sensing for artificial arm and artificial leg, MCF rubber that is able to response for shear force as well as normal force was developed. Our developed haptic MCF rubber by combining metal particles in balloon crude rubber has high quality of sensing at 0.01 N ordered force. From the high sensitivity, the rubber can respond to the shear force. We can clarify that there are elastic and non-elastic regions under the shear deformation of the rubber from the results of friction coefficient. The relation among the electric current flowing inner the rubber, shear and normal forces is respectively linear at the each regions as well as at the bundle of the regions.
